Early Literacy

Early literacy is the most important aspect of reading. It is all too often that I see the 3rd grader that cannot read and parents trying to attain help. The root of the problem? Somewhere down the line of the poor child's education he did not or received poor early literacy instruction. What exactly is early literacy instruction? It's simple. It's the talking and using language with your toddler or reading to your child nightly. It's sing the alphabet and using flashcards with simple words like cat, bat and rat. As well as, showing your child the corresponding picture to those words. Essentially, it's being aware of reading at a very young age. Doing all of this will help your child in the end!
