The Daily(ish) Decodable program uses a standard format to work through one sound per day. There are simple instructions for you, the parent or caregiver, and any words in big bold letters are meant for your child to read out loud.
Today we're going to work on the word “your.” It doesn't follow the normal “ou” sound pattern, but it's a very common word in English.
You can review all of the prior lessons here.
Rhyme It
Parents, read the following words out loud. Then ask your child which one does NOT rhyme with the others?
your
mine
floor
-------------------------------
Say It
Have your child point to and say the word "your" three times:
your
your
your
-------------------------------
Blend It
Have your child read these silly sentences words out loud:
What is your name?
Watch your feet.
Is this your toy?
Is that your coffee?
It's your turn.
Read It
Have your child read the passage below out loud:
Name Your Car Day
Today is Name Your Car Day.
I have a hunch. I say that if your car has a name it will last longer. Do you agree with that?
Here's why I say yes: By giving it a name, you will take better care of your car. You will get its oil checked and drive it slow.
If your car is just another tool in your shed, you may not treat it as nicely. You may be wild with it, take turns too fast, or just be reckless.
So I say: Name Your Car. In the end, your car will work better for you.
-------------------------------
Explain It
Now have your child answer a couple questions about the story:
Do you agree with the author? Why or why not?
Without looking back, can you spell the word "name?"
