We have been playing a game that seems to be effective in reinforcing word recognition.
We use flash cards with words, words cut out of circulars, just about anything.
I’ll put five or six words on the table and say, “Can you find the word dog?”
If he finds the word he gets lots of praise; if he doesn’t I quickly correct him and continue hunting out all of the words. Eventually, we go back to the missed words to ensure that he gets them.
Today, he recognized several words that we did not even cover yet: monkey, goat, apple, horse.
