Children research and make a timeline of an inspiring woman in this biography activity.

Make a story summary folder with your child to help develop reading comprehension and critical thinking skills.

Take a beach ball, a marker, and a first grader. What do you get? An outdoor activity that works on reading comprehension, in the midst of a game of catch!

A new twist on the game of charades will inspire your first grader to look at her favorite books in a whole new light.

Children will read a book, then retell the story with pictures they have painted on stones.

Teaching kids that stories have an order is important, despite how fun it is to listen to the tale of the tomato that put on his pajamas and went for a swim.
