Getting Ready for Kindergarten - May (Story Time)

May - Rhyme Time

Story Time Tips
Books help children build confidence as they join in with a repeated rhyme. When reading a familiar rhyme, stop before a rhyming word and encourage the child to fill in the word

Children love to hear the same story over and over again, that's how they learn stories and words which leads to reading!

When reading a familiar story, stop before the last word and let your child finish it.
