Daily(ish) Decodable: Love Your Pet Day

The Daily(ish) Decodable program uses a standard format to work through one sound per day. There are simple instructions for you, the parent or caregiver, and any words in big bold letters are meant for your child to read out loud. 


Today we're going to work on the word “love.” It looks like other Magic E words, but it doesn't follow the normal rule. 


You can review all of the prior lessons here

Love Your Pet Day

 

Do you have a pet? A dog, a cat, or a fish? A goat that eats oats? A reptile like a snake or a lizard or a turtle?

 

Is it a good boy, or a good girl?

 

If so, I need to point out that today is Love Your Pet Day! Maybe you could give your pet an extra hug, a super long walk, or a nice treat to chew on?

 

When I was a kid, I wanted to get a rabbit, but my dad said no.

 

If you really love your pet, today is the day to show it! 


-------------------------------


Explain It

Now have your child answer a couple questions about the story:


  1. What day is it today?

  2. How many different kinds of animals does the story mention? What are they?
