PARENTS: Teach your child rhymes, short poems and songs. Read books with rhymes. Play simple word games: How many words can you make up that sound like the word "bat"? Help your child separate the sounds in words, listen for beginning and ending sounds, and put separate sounds together. Practicing the alphabet by pointing out letters wherever you see them and by reading alphabet books.MY WORD: Read as often as you can to your child is the best way for your child to learn how to read.
