All words on the Word Wall

Talk together

• What was the same in both months?
• Which month had more recorded rainy days?
• Did we observe equally many days?

Get ready

• First monthly record and current completed record, counters and crayons.

Safety

• A grown-up stays close. Never look at the Sun; use hats, sunscreen and shade breaks. The adult checks surfaces first; do not touch anything hot.

How to help

Let your child listen, look and try before you explain. Point to the next picture if needed. Accept drawing, pointing or a voice response; writing is optional. Save the child’s own work with a date.
