Reading The Neighbourhood


Print is every where ~ one way of learning to read is to read words around us. Here J3 went for a walk around the school neighbourhood and observed that there were lots of words on the buildings across the school ~  the names of shops and advertisements! There were plenty! They read and wrote the words that they could see.
This exercise also helps to develop the children's observation skills & writing skills. 
Read with your child as you go with your child ~ license plate numbers on cars, names of roads, as you shop, as you eat out (read the menu), words on clothes, etc.
