Teaching Read and Respond
What it is
These pages give a short line to read and something to do with it: color the thing that is named, draw what the sentence says, or draw what the child pictures. The drawing is how the child shows the sentence was understood and not merely sounded out.
When a child is ready
Begin once the child reads a short sentence without help, even slowly.
If they struggle
Have the child read the line aloud and say it back in their own words before picking up a crayon. If the drawing does not match, reread the line together and point to the word that was missed, rather than correcting the picture.
