A simple star diagram can help your child practice reading comprehension and story writing. After reading a good book, create a star similar to this image. Together, talk about the story answering the 5 W’s…who is the story about? where did it take place? when did it take place? what happened? For WHY you could either answer why it happened or why your child liked or disliked the book.
To help your child develop their writing skills, use this same image to plan a story. Choose the topic together and then answer the 5 W’s before you begin to write.
With your help, your child can be a SUPER STAR!
