Personalized books help make reading fun! Raising a Reader Reading begins at home. As a parent you are the first and most important link on the road to reading. Enjoy stories with your child from a very early age. Even newborns can sense your enthusiasm when you read to them. Try to set aside a special time each and every day that you and your child can enjoy a number of books together without interruption. Your child will signal you when he or she begins to tire of this activity. Let this be your clue that story time has ended. It is probably best to let your child dictate the length of time spent reading and you will find that as the activity becomes standard, your child will sit and listen for longer periods of time. Be sure and engage your child in conversations, for communicating orally is a prerequisite to understanding the written word. Encourage and ask questions like "Why?", "What would you have done?" or "Who was your favorite character?" from a book or television show. Your child will have a lot of fun choosing books from the library or bookstore and will enjoy even the simplest of tales. Once your child begins to read independently, take turns reading to each other. This is also a great time to begin to read longer stories, perhaps a chapter or two a day. There are plenty of books out there that will keep them on the edge of their seats until the next reading session.

Components of Kindergarten Literacy by Christy Boerner, Roxie Peterson, Joanie Doperalski Central Elementary School Wamego, Kansas Language Development Listening Skills Letter/Sound ... by Roxie Peterson Language Development Children need to have a broad array of language experiences. Oral language, vocabulary, and other language concepts are crucial foundations for success in reading. Children's language can be developed by exposing them to opportunities to discuss experiences, make predictions and discuss past events. Each year kindergarten students begin the year with a Me unit. This child is using language to tell about his "child of the week" pictures and story. Kindergarten children use their language skills each morning during calendar activity. They name the day, the month, and the year, as well as describe the daily weather. Each weekend a child takes home Cubby Bear and dictates a story to their parents about their experiences to share with the class and place in a class book. Show and Tell is a favorite activity among the kindergarten children. There is usually a theme for the letter of the week or the unit study.

An Integrated Unit Please Be Patient . . . Several Photos of Student Work Are Being Loaded! THE GINGERBREAD MAN The Gingerbread Man Theme The classic story of the Gingerbread Man can serve as a child-centered theme to build a total curriculum around. Appropriate any time of the year, use these activities to teach, practice and apply concepts in language arts through reading, writing, phonics, and children's literature. This is a collection of activities shared by teachers with teachers. Some are original and many have been passed down from teacher to teacher. I thank teachers everywhere for sharing and am happy to be able to pass the ideas on to you for use in your classroom. I know these ideas will inspire additional games and activities as you use them. Many of the activities are designed in a game format, played either by partners or in small groups. Others are designed to be used in a whole class arrangement while some are for independent practice. Many of the activities are also appropriate for homework to give the students additional review of basic skills. This unit is filled with Blackline Masters to make it easy for you to use these activities tomorrow and then again and again year after year. It is recommended that you duplicate many of the games on heavy duty card stock, and laminate for repeated use. Addresses and phone numbers for additional resources pertaining to the Gingerbread Man theme and a bibliography are included.
