Teaching with Little Reader
Some children may start to recognize words through the process of having someone read to them while pointing out the words as they are read. However, if we would like our children to learn in a more structured and systematic way (which is no less fun) we’ll be happy to know that there is so much more we can and should do! The main methods used to teach babies to read are the flash and multisensory method, which are also the two main methods used by Little Reader. This book provides some various methods and technique that we can implement to teach the little reader since reading is such a big problem for us to tell to the students especially children. One of the drawbacks with teaching children to read using the traditional phonics-based approach is that we would typically need to wait until your child is 3 or 4 years of age. Another way of introducing children to the concept of reading is the whole language method. Whole language enables us to expose the children to the written word from as young as 3 or 4 months of age. By exposing children to the written language from babyhood, we can give her a head start in reading that will make her a more fluent reader for the rest of her life. We believe that both methods have their merits, and that so long as children learn phonics before they start school, they will be fluent readers. This is why Little Reader uses both the whole language method as well as phonics-based teaching.
