Welcome to Kindle 2, 2010

I hope everyone has had a great holiday and tried some of the 'Things to do over the holidays' ideas. If not, there is still time.

Reading
Internationally there is growing evidence that holiday time spent without reading will result in a regression in reading level, so your child can:

• Visit the Library
• Read bedtime or anytime stories
• Make stories with the word cards and read them
• Visit this wiki and try some of the activities

Writing

• Make stories with the word cards, then write and illustrate them
• Draw a picture plan and try his or her own writing
• Write shopping lists or letters together

Maths

• Practice counting forwards and backwards, first to 10 and then 20
• Read the numbers on the telephone, calendar, letterboxes
• Play card games
• Count pegs, knives and forks, anything you can find
• Visit this wiki and try some of the activities
