If you have not yet used the website Tumble Books, I highly recommend it! It is a website with an online database of books. The books are read aloud to your child and there are often comprehension questions at the end (quiz)! There are pictures to go along with the read aloud and many of the popular books and authors that we study in school are on this database. Robert Munsch is a favourite, and on Tumble Books he reads the stories himself! :)
For those of you interested in trying it out, going through the provincial library site is the best option (because if you go straight to the website, you need to enter a password). The address is: http://library.pe.ca/. Under the "Library Services" section (on the front page, not the side menu), click on "TumbleBooks - eBooks for Kids." Then you just click on "Story Books" or whatever kind of reading you want to do.
This is a wonderful way for your child to enjoy a good book when you might not have the time to sit down and read to them.
Enjoy! :)
