Activities

Word of the Day
Introduce a new word each day, like "happy," "big," "soft," "red," or "fast." Use the word in a simple sentence and show it through actions or expressions. For example, say "I am happy!" and smile widely.
-
Animal Sounds
Choose different animals and make their sounds. For example, say "What does a cow say?" and encourage the student to respond with "Moo!" This helps to connect words with sounds and actions.
-
Color Hunt
Ask the student to find objects around the room that are a specific color, like "Can you find something red?" This encourages them to use color vocabulary in a fun and interactive way.
