Storytime supports early literacy

with books, flannel stories, songs and crafts.

 

 

Early Literacy

Early literacy is what children know about reading and writing before they can actually read and write. Research shows that children get ready to read years
before they start school.

 

Six Pre-Reading Skills

1.      Vocabulary: Knowing the names of things. 

2.      Print Motivation: Being interested in and enjoying books.

3.      Narrative Skills: Being able to describe things and tell stories.

4.      Print Awareness: Noticing print and knowing how to handle a book.

5.      Letter Knowledge: Knowing letters are different from each other and knowing their names.

6.      Phonological Awareness: Being able to hear and play with the smaller sounds in words.
