7 Six Early Literacy Skills 1st Edition of Every Child Ready to Read identified six skills every child needs in order to become a successful reader: Print Motivation Print Awareness Letter Knowledge Phonological Awareness Vocabulary Narrative Skills Nature s Number 6 by David M Goehring CC-BY-2.0
8 Print Motivation What is it? Being interested in books Enjoying reading Why is it important? Learning to read is hard work Kids who enjoy reading are more motivated to learn to read themselves Look, there s a baby reading a book by bitterjug CC-BY How do we help? Read, read, read!
9 Print Awareness The important thing... by katerha CC-BY-2.0 What is it? Noticing print all around us Knowing how to use a book and follow print on the page Why is it important? Children need to understand that print carries meaning Lets kids concentrate on decoding and comprehension How do we help? Pay attention to print
10 Letter Knowledge What is it? Knowing that letters have names, shapes, and sounds Why is it important? Children need to be able to see that each word is made up of different letters that stand for different sounds How do we help? Talk about shapes Play with letters
11 Phonological Awareness What is it? Being able to hear & play with the separate sounds in words Why is it important? Children need to be able to hear that words are made up of individual sounds in order to sound out words in print How do we help? Sing songs & say rhymes Play sound & rhyming games
12 Vocabulary What is it? Knowing the names of things Why is it important? Easier to decode words we already know Knowing the meaning of words is how children understand what they read How do we help? Talk with children Read a wide variety of books
13 Narrative Skills What is it? Being able to describe objects and events Being able to tell stories Why is it important? Understanding how stories work aids comprehension How do we help? Talk about the sequence of activities Tell and retell stories
14 Five Early Literacy Practices 2nd Edition of Every Child Ready to Read describes five practices by which children build early literacy skills: Reading Writing Singing Talking Playing 5 by Squidish CC-BY-2.0
15 Reading The single most important activity for building the knowledge required for eventual success in reading is reading aloud to children. Becoming a Nation of Readers
16 Reading Circle time and storytime Book nooks Maps, menus, lists Signs, labels, nametags Magazines, , cartoons, nonfiction Tshirts, toys
17 Writing The scribbles of very young children have meaning to them, and scribbling actually helps them develop the language skills that lead to reading. Young children who are encouraged to draw and scribble stories will learn to write more easily, effectively, and confidently once they head off to school. Reading is Fundamental
18 Writing Crayons, pencils, markers Fingerpaint, shaving cream, pudding! Cutting with scissors, tearing paper Fingerplays Clothespins, tongs Gross motor play for core muscle strength
19 Singing Singing is simply one of the best ways for developing the sound awareness skills that are critical to learning to read successfully. Susan Canizares, PhD
20 Singing Circle time and storytime Transitions Listening activities Rhyming games Clapping, stomping, tapping, jumping, dancing Macro of music sheet... by Horia Varlan CC-BY-2.0
21 Talking With few exceptions, the more parents talked to their children, the faster the children s vocabularies were growing and the higher the children s IQ test scores at age three and later. Hart & Risley, 1995
22 Talking Circle time and storytime Conversations Open-ended questions Describing actions Defining new words Connecting ideas
23 Playing Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood. Fred Rogers
24 Playing Symbolic thinking Retelling stories with puppets or props Make-believe Sequences, patterns Puzzles, blocks, construction toys Colorful Wooden Blocks... by Stephen Depolo CC-BY-2.0
