Okay, are you ready?
- Yes.
- Find the letter M. I have bean bags with letters on them.
I scatter them around the yard.
And then I say a sound.
Can you find H like Holloway?
When she finds the correct letter she brings it to me.
N says (girl pronounces N) Good job.
We love this game.
We like it because it helps with letter recognition, fluency and sound.
These are the building blocks of literacy and it's a skill she needs for kindergarten.
- W. - Says, (Girl Pronounces W) - Plus, we get exercise while learning and movement is a great way to keep kids engaged.
What letter is this one?
- L. - Good job, sweet girl.
(hits hand) (laughs) Kindergarten is right around the corner, but this game will help us get ready and have fun while doing it.
Yay!
