Beginning Sounds in Words
Play a beginning sound game with your child. For example, say a word and see if your child can say the name of the letter and the sound the word starts with.
Students need lots of practice identifying beginning sounds. Play games where a student or the teacher says a word out loud and another student says the beginning letter and sound of the word.

When reading simple pattern books, practice pointing to each word as your child reads and invite them to do the same. This will ensure that they recognize the words and not just memorize a pattern. One to one word correspondence will also help your child understand the connection between spoken and written words.
