REMINDERS:
·         Remember to write your name on all of your papers.
·         Check the weather.  Draw a simple picture if you like.  (For example: a sun for sunny, a cloud for cloudy, a cloud with some curly lines for windy and a rain drop for rainy.  OR you could decide to just draw a lion for a wild weather day and a lamb for a calm and sunny (gentle) weather day.
·         Figure out the day of the week and read the number – “Today is Wednesday, May 20, 2020 and we have been in school 156 days.
·         Do cross-over exercises.  Touch your left hand to your right ear.  Touch your right hand to your left ear so your arms are across your body.  Uncross arms and shake them out.  Now touch your left hand to your right shoulder and your right hand to your left shoulder.  You’ve made an X.  Uncross and shake out your arms.  Continue repeating the pattern touching your elbows, hips, knees, and feet.
·         Practice opposites.  Try to name at least 5 every day.  Add more as you think of them.
·         Help your child to continue to hear initial sounds of words.  Ask him/her to tell you what sound he/she hears when you say a word.

3.       Make a list of 5 words that begin with the “Bb” sound.   As you make your list, point out to your child that the “tummy” of the lowercase b is on the right side of its tall straight back.  Compare the lowercase b to a lowercase d to show your child the difference between the two letters.  Talk about how these letters can be tricky and confusing.
