Kids Who Read Will Write
Young children who are read to regularly, who receive sweet birthday cards and other notes in the mail, or who observe their parents as they receive important written communications, easily come to understand that print, along with art and other modes of self-expression, provide the potential for reaching out to “touch” others.
Jot It? Got It!
Jotting is a perfect, always-there, literacy experience, and it is never too early to help a child old enough to hold a pencil or crayon to appreciate and adopt easy ways to develop the habit of recording something for later.
Words That Matter
Magic happens when kids are encouraged to use words to express kindness to others.
