Tip 17: Oral Skills

Besides telling our kids to read the oral passage clearly, pronouncing each word clearly, there are also a few other reminders:

1) Pause at commas and fullstops.
2) Pronounce "t" sound for words ending with "t".
3) Pronounce "s" sound for words ending with "s".
4) Pronounce "ed" sound for words ending with "ed".
5) Pronounce "th" sound for words starting with "th" e.g the, these, that, those, thing, think, etc.
6) Read with some appropriate expression/emotion in the voice.
