Following the Words
Shared reading with a pointer teaches print awareness, that words move left to right and that each mark on the page carries meaning. It is one of the strongest predictors of later reading success.
We Finished Our Patterns!
Recognizing and extending patterns is one of the earliest forms of mathematical thinking, and it lays groundwork for everything from counting to reading. The pride is the best part.
