There is nothing quite amazing like a child reading a book for the very first time. It is a wonderful experience to see their eyes light up when they discover they can read for the very first time. It is a good idea to find beginning readers for kindergarten books to give a child their first reading start.
Phonics is an enormous part of being able to read and later write. Without the basic phonics children have problems sounding out words. Without phonics many children will leave out the vowels that belong in words. One great way to get children interested in reading is to purchase easy books along with pictures.
Share your knowledge and encourage them to read as well. Great times to read include while taking a long bath, on your lunch breaks, or while cooking. There is actually a lot of down time between stirring the pots and eating dinner.
You can do these things to help your little ones reading. Read a story with your child and encourage him or her to create his or her own version of the story. You can change the story so it occurs in different places or with characters you know.
Select a book for the children to read during the month, or allow them to pick the pick. Allow them to talk to their friends about it at their book club meeting. An older sibling could be in charge of the childrens book club, or adult book club members could take turns. Give authors a platform to tell others about their new books.
When selecting a book for a young reader, be sure to select one that is age appropriate and in some cases one that teaches a lesson or demonstrates some type of good manners or behavior. Children learn a lot by listening to how other children in a book got through a certain situation.
Listening to an audio book is a great way to enjoy stories and acquire information. There will be times when you cannot read because of other activities that you are engaged in, but you can still enjoy listening. Most information obtained from audio books will stay with you just as if you were reading a book. Encourage your child to listen to audio books in the car when you are traveling.
The most important thing is to find a book that is engaging to a young reader. Find a book that a child can relate to and one that has tons of pictures. In the beginning before a child can actually read, allow them to make up their own stories about the pictures in books. You will be amazed at how their little minds work. Most parents and teachers find that children can tell a long story just by looking at a few pictures and usually the story they tell correlates back with something that has been going on or that they want to happen in their own life.
