Super People

Hey Families!

The Kid Zone! is a place where you can participate as your child builds literacy skills in a fun and interactive way. You can:

Listen
Note which sounds, letters, and words seem hard for your child and what he or she sounds like when reading aloud.

Look
Watch for the skills or tasks that appear difficult for your child. See if they improve with practice.

Help
Pause and give your child a chance to correct a mistake. Then try giving him or her a hint or prompt to figure it out.

Encourage
Talk with your child about the book or game experience. Offer praise when successful and reassure him or her when difficulties arise.
