Yesterday we read about animals that live in Africa.
Do you remember what animals were in the story? (Encourage children to look through
the pictures in the book to remember what happened in the story.)
Read the Book - Read the story with the children. Have children take turns reading each
page, or have the children echo read. (The teacher reads one sentence and children
repeat what was read while following the words with their fingers.)
