Reading Ritual
A routine is when you repeat an activity regularly without putting much thought into it. A ritual is when you infuse a repeated activity with purpose and meaning. Developing a reading ritual is the first step to teaching your child other literacy skills.
Literacy 101
These are the most common stages your child will take on the road to literacy. Like navigating any roadmap, plan for stops, detours, scenic byways, and naps along the way. Pay close attention to the signs your child points out to you. They will help you decide when to keep going and when it’s time to pack it in for the day
Teaching Your Child
You have the leading role in the stories your child sees unfolding each day. Play to your audience. Notice what makes them laugh or cry. Pay attention to the things they dread and the things they run towards. Then give them more of the things that light them up.
Learning Colors
There’s a reason primary education puts a lot of focus on teaching colors. The world is a colorful place. Tap into your child’s sense of sight. Teach your child colors so they have words to describe their world to you.
Skills Intro
Your child needs to take small literacy steps and climb steep literacy hills before they scale literacy mountains. They need to train daily, building their literacy muscles little by little. You are their trainer and guide; keeping pace and cheering them on.
