FOUR BASICS SKILLS (PART 2)



FOUR BASICS SKILLS (PART 2)


Spelling: is not the same talk and write, speak and write well. The difficulties associated with learning the English language is in most cases that English spelling is not their phonetic one hundred percent. This means that students can not be guided to the time of writing for their oral skills, have difficulties in acquiring good writing. This section seeks to remedy this need.

Reading: the act of communication is complex, requires give full meaning to a text, for what is needed together use all the language skills acquired. These games encourage these unions based on family contexts of education, public and personal areas, favoring the use of knowledge previously worked in other sections.
























A child’s journey towards literacy involves learning to speak, listen, read, understand, watch, draw and write. The foundation for building these skills begins at birth. Here are some literacy activities to get you and your child started.


   





- Activities -- Helping Your Child Become a Reader
What follows are ideas for language-building activities that you can do with your child to help her build the skills she needs to become a reader. Most public libraries offer free use of books, magazines, videos, computers, and other services. Other things that you might need for these activities are not expensive.
For each set of activities, we give an age span that suggests when children should try them. From one activity to the next, we continue to talk about children at different stages: babies (birth to 1 year), toddlers (1 to 3 years), preschoolers (ages 3 and 4), and kindergartner/early first-graders (ages 5 and 6). Remember that children don't always learn the same things at the same rate. And they don't suddenly stop doing one thing and start doing another just because they are a little older. So use the ages as guides as your child learns and grows. Don't consider them to be hard and fast rules.
You'll see that your role in the activities will change, too. Just as you hold up your child when he's learning to walk, you will help him a lot when he's taking his first language steps. As he grows, you will gradually let go, and he will take more and more language steps on his own. That is why in most of the activities we say, "The first activities . . . work well with younger children. As your child grows older, the later activities let him do more."
As a parent, you can help your child want to learn in a way no one else can. That desire to learn is a key to your child's later success. Enjoyment is important! So, if you and your child don't enjoy one activity, move on to another. You can always return to any activity later on.
