Not every child will be a book worm. Nonetheless, there are other ways to encourage literacy development at home. Below are some helpful tips and tricks that parents can try out.
- Put books in bin on the floor. That way, books will be accessible to your child at all times. If your child does have the urge to read, a good book will always be within arm's reach.
- Read a book aloud with your child as an after school ritual. Learning will continue after the school day!
- Ask your child to say different letters or sound out longer words. This will help them with letter recognition and pronunciation skills.
- Find out if your local library holds free song and story hours.
- Talk to your child about topics that interest them. In doing so, you can introduce them to new vocabulary words they may not be familiar with.
- Teach your child different nursery rhymes. Reciting the nursery rhymes with your child could be just what you need to lull them to sleep.
Most of all, show your child that reading can be fun! At Miss Sue's, our learning centers emphasize individual growth through language arts. Every day our children are involved with interactive language experiences. Please call us for an appointment or with any questions at 516-938-0894.
