Phonological Awareness and Letter Knowledge

Tell your child that this book is about removing a letter or sound from a word in order to create a new word. Before you read, use your child鈥檚 name to help him understand what you will be doing as you read the story.聽

Write your child鈥檚 name on a sheet of paper and ask:

"Whose name is this?"

Now, cover the first letter of your child鈥檚 name and say:

"Your name is JAKE. If we take the J away from JAKE, your name would be AKE. Jake without J is just AKE. Is your name AKE? No! Let鈥檚 put the letter J back. Now your name is JAKE!"

Read the title of the book. As you point and track under the word, Away, say:

"This word says, AWAY. If we take away the first A (cover the A with your finger), we have a new word. AWAY without A is just WAY. I think this is going to be a silly book!"

<b>Letter Knowledge</b></p>\r\n<p><b>Each page of the book presents a letter of the alphabet.</b> Touch the letter and ask your child if he knows the letter name and letter sound:</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\">&quot;What is the name of this letter? What sound does it make?&quot;</p>\r\n<p>Touch the words as you read the sentence and show your child how the word changes. For example:</p>\r\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\">&quot;This word says DICE, and this word says ICE. Look what happens when I take away the D from DICE (cover the D with your finger). The new word is ICE.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>\r\n"}} id=text-ebaece9c0f class=cmp-text>
