Our core word focus this month is WANT. At the end of each school day, we will record a message from your child to play for you about their day at school. In return, you will record, with your child, a message about something they did at home.
Dear Parents,
Your child is learning how to use the Core strategy to support his/her communication. It’s an exciting time with our little interactive learners! Once they can use Core words, the possibilities are endless for things they will be able to express. The Core is set up with the first set of 12 words that have lessons for an introduction. Each word comes with a set of books and suggested lessons for both home and school.
I’m sending this letter to let you know that we are working on the Core word “go” this month.
The first book we will be reading isWhen I Want.Your child will have this book at home and also have access to it on our blog page. One strategy we use at school that you might find helpful at home, is to do a Picture Walk through the pages. The idea of this activity is to create a rich language experience that feels important to your child and allows them to connect with the pictures in the book about things they already know. As you open the pages of the book, just encourage them to notice things in the pictures. You might point something out, for example, “look at that refrigerator. Do you see an apple?!” or “look at all those presents!!” You don’t have to expect your child to repeat you or make contributions to this talk in the beginning. You are providing a model for them to do this as they develop literacy and language skills.
We practice using “want” buttons at school. Look for buttons in backpacks for them to practice at home. Please send them back to school each day. We use them here too! The more you can practice at home, the better! I ‘m looking forward to hearing more about the fun you have working with this new word!
Have Fun Reading!
