Practice at Home:
- Help your child read non-fiction books, fully and deeply from the first page to the last!
Help them “collect facts” as they read to develop a deeper understanding of the main idea and supporting information while letting go of the “not-so-important” information.
- Look around the neighborhood for 3D shapes, specifically cylinders, cones, rectangular prisms and triangular prisms.
