ACTIVITY 11 - WORD FAMILIES (continued)

How Can You Help?

• Familiarize yourself with word families as you play the learning toy

with your child. While he or she is playing, see if your child can tell you

what word family the word on the LCD screen belongs to. Have your

child think of another word to go with that family.

• Make word family wheels. Cut out two circles making sure one is smaller

than the other. On the edge of the large circle write the word family (i.e.

UMP). Carefully cut out a small space in front of the U in UMP. Next, using

your smaller circle, write a letter(s) on the edge that could be used to

form words in the UMP word family. Continue with additional letter(s) by

moving the circle. Then position the smaller circle underneath the large

circle so that you see a letter next to UMP. Use a paper fastener to hold

the circles together. Move the wheel so new words can be seen. Let your

child tell you the name of each word. Try to make another wheel with a

different word family. Good luck!

• While reading a book to your child or while your child is reading to you,

pick out words in the story that belong to word families. Have your

child tell another word that could be part of the family by changing

the beginning letter(s).

ACTIVITY 12 - ALPHABETIZING

This activity strengthens alphabetical order skills. Your child will recognize

that the letters of the alphabet are arranged in a certain order. He or she

will have opportunities to apply this knowledge as he or she is asked to put

three words in alphabetical order. Each of the three words will begin with a

different letter.
