Start First Steps in Reading and Writing: For Parents

4 lessons

Pre-K Language Arts topics

  • First Letters and Their Sounds

    The child links a first set of letters to their sounds in the order the local reading method uses, and recognises them in words around them.

  • New Words Every Day

    The parent adds new and precise words during play, books and routines; the child uses new nouns, verbs, describing words and category words in their own talk.

  • Dialogic Reading at Home

    The parent reads with the child using prompts and expansions so the child does more of the talking; the child answers and asks questions about pictures and stories.

  • Telling and Retelling Stories

    The child retells a familiar story in order with story language and tells short stories about their own day; the parent scaffolds with props, pictures and sequence words.
