  7. READING FACTS: • Early Language and literacy (reading and writing) development begins in the first three years of life and is closely linked to a child's earliest experiences with books, stories, and interaction with people. • A child’s success in learning to read is affected more by reading related experiences that a child has BEFORE entering school than the reading related experiences a child has AFTER he/she enters school. • Early literacy develops in real life settings through interactions with literacy materials and people. • Signs • Directions of food / labels / recipes / toys • Newspaper • Books

  8. Most Importantly: • Children who are READtoREGULARLY are better readers. • If a child can SEE other people read, they will learn that READING is IMPORTANT! • 3 guarantees to improve language, raise a reader, and learn in school. • READ, SING, and TALK with them

  9. Handwriting

  10. Child’s Name • TAKE THE TIME AND EFFORT TO LEARN HOW TO SPELL THE CHILD’S NAME CORRECTLY! • ALWAYS CONFIRM THE SPELLING OF A NAME UNTIL YOU HAVE IT MEMORIZED!

  11. PRE-WRITING Activities • Two skills are needed before a child can successfully write manuscript: • Small muscle coordination • Hand-eye coordination

  12. SMALL MUSCLE Activities: • Any activities where the child is using their fingers will help to develop these small muscles. • Needed to hold a pencil and make basic strokes • Some examples of activities are: • Puzzles - building blocks, play dough, clay, rubber stamps, magnet letters, small cars and trucks, crayons, etc.

  13. EYE-HAND Coordination • This allows the child’s hand to react to what the eye sees. • These activities will help the child to develop writing skills: • Drawing, tracing, cutting, painting, pasting, finger paints, typing (key boards) lacing cards, stringing items, etc.

  14. As a child begins to use drawings to represent different ideas, they are beginning to write. • Straight lines and circles begin to represent items in their lives.

  15. Make writing & letters FUN! • The majority of preschool children lack the small muscle control and eye-hand coordination, at first, for traditional writing methods. • Provide a variety of ABC activities for the children. • Early Writing/ABC activities: • Without holding a pencil • Sensory letter activities • Games, songs, books • Label on items • Word and letter recognition in familiar names and signs

  16. MANUSCRIPT WRITING • ZANER BLOSER • First they learn curved and straight lines • Second they learn round letters (O, C) and curved letters (S, D). • Curved letters that have intersections (B, R) • Letters with diagonal lines (K, X) and horizontal lines (L, H) • litoadcefgjqusbhprnvywkxz 12345678910 • Letters made with lines and circles are easiest
