DEAR time - Drop Everything And Read!!

Or in our case, look at the pictures!
HOWEVER, don’t underestimate the power of letting the children use books.

• Turning the page (Pinching)
• Page numbers
• Left to right orientation
• Oral language is 🔑 - talk about the pictures!
• Story is made from sentences, sentences from words. (Point as you are reading)

All of these things are so valuable to a child before we begin to read later in the year!
