Learning To Read

September 25th 2009 01:29
We have headed down the reading path as my daughter is starting to show interest in reading. So in order for her to learn to recognise characters and words, every time we read a book she picks a word to read from the story. Every time the word appears she will read it and each night we build upon what we learnt earlier. We write the words she has learnt in a little dictionary and review them every few days.


Key phrases like he said and she said appear in many stories and are easy for little minds to remember. I don't expect her to remember the words night after night but she enjoys seeing the words pop up again and again in new stories and it gives her a newfound confidence.

But overall it is fun for both of us and that is the most important thing of all!

Michelle, it's the sweetest moment, as the little buddy is keep asking us on how to spell the words correctly. Hope you're enjoying the teaching moment...

I am definitely enjoying it. They are so keen to learn at that age and she loves reading and picking up new books. I hope the willingness to learn continues to last for many years to come.
