This week your child learns the letters p, n, c and the short i sound, and reads five new words. Let the app lead each short session, then ask your child to show you the sounds. On day 5 they will trace the four letters and draw the papa penguin.
Penguins on the Ice
Meet the penguin. He is a bird in the snow. A penguin cannot fly. He walks and he slides. His wings are for swimming. Penguins swim fast in the cold sea. They eat little fish. On land, penguins stand in a big group. The group keeps them warm. A penguin egg sits on the nest. The papa keeps the egg warm. Soon a new penguin pips out. Welcome, little penguin.
