Point to Each Word

When a grown-up reads, you can help by pointing to the words. Each time a word is said, your finger taps one word.

Try it with 'I like my dog. ' Tap, tap, tap, tap. Four words, four taps!

Pointing shows that every word we say is written on the page, and it keeps your eyes in the right place.
