"The first time I read something, it is a little bumpy," said Kavi. "The second time, it rolls along smoothly — like a bike after a wobbly start!" Read each line with me. Then read it again, and feel how much smoother it sounds.

A peek inside
Read in phrases. Instead of "On… a… sunny… day", group the words: "On a sunny day — Ben and his dog — ran to the park." Where should you take a tiny breath?
group words → breathe at the comma
Try this at home: Blend the sounds: j – u – m – p. What word is it?
