Hi, I'm Ann Kennedy on behalf of expertvillage.com and this session we'll be talking about rhyming and reading games. Tongue twisters. They're wonderful for you, they're wonderful for your child, they're great warm ups before you actually read to your child for yourself and for them. Simple simple tongue twister as a box of biscuits, a batch of mixed biscuits and have fun with it. Sometimes if you don't say it properly and correctly, let your child see you think aloud when you make a mistake as unique, a, ohps, I should have paused, unique New York. The child is learning. Other tongue twisters as simple a six thick thistle sticks, six thick thistle sticks. Toy boat, toy boat, toy boat, it builds fluency. Fluency is very very very important in reading, the speed of a read. Not being monotone or very very slow. So use a couple tongue twisters, there are so many of them, before you begin a read or anytime throughout the day. Make it your goal that you're going to try at least five or ten a week and it will help the child learn to pronounce, to enunciate and to understand the glory of so many wonderful words.
