SCHOOL READINESS GOAL: Children will be able to demonstrate age-appropriate emergent literacy skills that lead to print knowledge and the awareness that print conveys meaning.

Please choose one activity below, circle which one you completed, and sign when completed. Menus should be sent back when students return to school.

PICTURE WALK: Choose a sturdy infant book. Look through the pictures before reading. Point, name one picture on each page, and allow your infant to touch or help turn the pages.

NAME BOOK: Write your infant’s name in large letters on paper. Point to the letters and say, “This says your name.” Add a photo and let your infant look and touch.

RHYME AND TAP: Say a short nursery rhyme while gently tapping the beat on your infant’s feet or hands. Repeat favorite sounds and pause to see if your infant moves or vocalizes.

READ THE ROOM: Carry your infant around the room and point to a safe print, such as a food label or calendar. Say, "These words tell us something," and name one picture or word.

In addition to completing one of the above activities, please read together each NTI day.
