How Can You Help?
• Together with your child, make up your own scrambled words with
vocabulary words that are familiar to your child.
• Prepare a list of simple words for your child to unscramble. (Do not
show your child the list.) Next, create a set of alphabet cards by using
index cards. Choose a word from the list. Tell your child what word he
or she will be unscrambling. Then pull out the letters from your alpha-
bet cards that are needed to spell the word. (If you need two of a
certain letter, prepare an additional card.) Scramble the cards and
have your child unscramble the cards in order to spell the word.
• Make a fishing game with your child. Using scrambled words from the
learning toy, write each scrambled word on a paper fish. Next, print
the unscrambled words on index cards using the same words. Your
child must pick a scrambled fish and match it with the unscrambled
fish. Be sure to check that a pair has been made.
ACTIVITY 16 - COMPLETE THE SENTENCE
This activity allows your child to read a sentence. Your child will need to use
a picture clue as well as other words in the sentence to determine a missing
word within a sentence. Your child will see a picture of a particular object
flash on the LCD screen. Next, a sentence will appear on the LCD screen with
a blank space to show where the word is missing. Your child will need to rely
on the picture clue shown earlier as well as the other words in the sentence
to determine the missing word.
