  2. Read the stories with enthusiasm! Apply a melodic tone, changing the pitch when the repetitive phrases are being read. 
  3. Pause to allow your child to say the repetitive phrase. 
  4. Call attention to the print; point to the written text as you read. 
  5. Provide a calm environment and allow plenty of time for the story.
