🧠 Tips for Parents — Story Time
Read Together Out Loud
Take turns reading paragraphs. Help with tricky words. This builds confidence and fluency.
Ask “What Happens Next?”
Pause in the middle and ask “What do you think happens next?” Builds prediction skills.
Discuss the Moral
After each story, talk about the moral. Connect it to real life: “When have YOU been clever like the crow?”
Retell in Own Words
Ask your child to retell the story in their own words. Tests understanding and builds speaking skills.
