Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Describe some effective storybook reading strategies.
 Read the same books again and again. Children learn new things each time they hear story and look at the pictures.
 Ask children to find and label objects. This helps to keep them involved in the story.
 Ask open-ended questions. Asking questions like What do you think will happen next? or What was your favorite part of the story? encourages children to share their feelings and opinions..
 Expand your child's answers. Adding to your child's responses encourages him or her to interact with you and keeps him or her involved.
 Read with enthusiasm. Taking on the voices of the three little pigs and the wolf is fun and exciting and brings the story to life.
 Encourage children to act out the story. Storybook dramas are excellent for language development and are also a great deal of fun.
