Dear Family Member:
This week our class will be reading stories about how people work together to solve problems. Children will also learn ways to make decisions, including the concept of voting.
Here are some activities that you can do with your child to help reinforce the skills we will be practicing.
Word Workout
- Vocabulary: decide, opinion Discuss how your family works together to make a decision. Explain that people have different opinions, or ideas, and that voting is one way of making a decision.
- My Words to Know
Category Words: question words Think of a decision your family needs to make, such as what book to read before bedtime, or what foods to prepare for a meal. Then help your child form questions that will help the family make the decision.
Phonics: long u Play “Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down.” Tell your child to show thumbs up if you say a word with a long u sound, or show thumbs down if the word doesn’t have a long u sound.

Have your child write the numbers 1, 2, or 3 under pictures to show what happened first, next, and last.
