Teaching Tips

  • Preschool games and activities around opposites are very important. Play a little game at the water table or with a bin by soaking some items and leaving others dry. Ask your child to sort the wet and dry items and practice the sign as she goes.
  • Have your child help out with simple washing chores. You can spray down the table and have him wipe it dry, or put clothes in the drier and let him push the button to make them dry. Practice the sign each time!
