child about the photo and model use of adjectives as well by talking about your “poofy hair” or your “hot and itchy” uniform. Encourage your
Thursday child to think of some other describing words.
Freaky On Freaky Fridays, your child can practice listening and vocabulary skills, Think of some sentences that don’t quite make sense because they
contain a vocabulary error. (Example. My ice-cream melted because it was so cold outside.) Ask your child if he or she can fix your “Freaky
Friday Friday” sentence. Take turns creating and correcting weird sentences.
Stop and Go During your Saturday morning routine, STOP and give your child three words to remember. These words should be unrelated (ex. “daisy, penny
and banana”). Once you have given your child three words to remember, have your child repeat the words to you. Now it’s time to GO back to
Saturday what you were doing. In a few minutes, ask your child to STOP and repeat the words to you again. You can play stop and go throughout the
morning. This is a great way to improve auditory memory skills.
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.
