The Importance of Reading with your Child at Home!
It is so important that you read with your child everyday! The more they read orally and to themselves the better they will get. When they complete their book ask them questions about what they have read. Practice makes perfect! Reading exercises and strengthens their brains. It also helps with improve concentration. If they read regularly they will be able to focus for longer periods of time. Reading teaches them about the world around them. They are exposed to different people, cultures, and places. You will be amazed at how much they will be able to expand their vocabulary and improve their language skills. This is one of our CAFE strategies in our literacy centers. When they read they are also learning to visualize and improve their imagination. One of the most important reasons we stress in our classroom is that reading is FUN!
