What you need

  • Printed activity sheet
  • Pencil
  • Eraser

Safety notes

Supervise pencil use and remind your child to keep it away from their face.

How to do it

  1. Put the sheet and pencil within your child’s reach.
  2. Point to “see” and read it aloud together.
  3. Look at the letters and show your child how to trace the word.
  4. Invite your child to trace the words.
  5. Ask them to find and circle “see” in the grid.
  6. Look at the cat picture and read the sentence together. Invite your child to copy it on the line.
  7. Finish by finding and reading “see” in the sentence.

Teaching suggestions

  • Say, “Let’s look closely at the letters. What do you notice about the two e’s?”
  • Cover part of the grid with a sheet of paper to show just a few words at a time.
  • If copying the whole sentence is difficult, help your child copy one word at a time.
  • Look for “see” together in books or notes.

Variations

Make it easier

Find the word together. Your child can point before circling and copy just “see” on the line.

Add a challenge

Invite your child to say another sentence beginning with “I see” and try writing it on a separate sheet.

Extend the play

Look around the room and take turns saying sentences that begin with “I see”.

Talk about it

  • What do you notice about the letters in “see”?
  • How did you decide which words to circle?
  • What do you see in the picture?
  • What else can you see?

What to look for

  • Notice whether your child finds “see” in the grid, with or without help.
  • Watch as your child follows the tracing model.
  • Notice whether your child copies the sentence, including the word “see”.
