Literacy - Brain development

2.11 years




Ajani is now able to request the book that he wants you to read to him by the title and he can also pick out the book .
He has the same set of books since he was an infant however ,now he is reading his books with a different eye. He will point to the pictures and and will spell out some words. He is able to identify all the letters in the alphabet . He also likes to read on his own by reading the pictures .

Having books that are age appropriate for you infants/toddlers is critical. The books should have large prints and few words  and a lot of pictures. You need to have books that have the sight words these are words that children need to be able to recognize before they get to kindergarten . Having the right books will give your child a good experience with seeing these words . These are words that your  child should be able to  recognize by sight .

 In order for a child to begin to read they must have a rich vocabulary (words) books are one way to build vocabulary. All these experiences are called readiness skills for kindergarten.
