we must teach in a way child can learn"
What is phonics?
Phonics is a method of learning to read. Phonics works by breaking each word up into it’s individual sounds before blending those sounds back together to make the word. Children learn to ‘decode’ words by breaking it down into sounds rather than having to memories 1,000’s of words individually. Research has shown that phonics, when taught correctly, can be the most effective way of teaching children to learn to read. Sounds are taught from easiest to hardest: starting with single letter sounds and then moving on to two letters making a sound and then three and so on. Learning phonics and learning to read is one of the most important stepping stones in early education as it gives your child the skills they need to move forward in every subject, you simply cannot progress without it.
Grammar
Grammar is the foundation for all of our writing and speaking in English. Having a solid foundation makes it easier to achieve fluency. Native speakers can benefit from a refresher on English grammar basics, which they may have forgotten over time. Refreshing the basics is one way to help break bad habits in writing.
How is Grammar helpful?
Grammar is the system of a language. People sometimes describe grammar as the “rules” of a language; but in fact, no language has rules*. If we use the word “rules”, we suggest that somebody created the rules first and then spoke the language, like a new game. But languages did not start like that. Languages started by people making sounds which evolved into words, phrases and sentences.
No commonly-spoken language is fixed. All languages change over time. What we call “grammar” is simply a reflection of a language at a particular time.Do we need to study grammar to learn a language? The short answer is “no”. Very many people in the world speak their own, native language without having studied its grammar. Children start to speak before they even know the word “grammar”. But if you are serious about learning a foreign language, the long answer is “yes, grammar can help you to learn a language more quickly and more efficiently.” It’s important to think of grammar as something that can help you, like a friend. When you understand the grammar (or system) of a language, you can understand many things yourself, without having to ask a teacher or look in a book.
So think of grammar as something good, something positive, something that you can use to find your way – like a signpost or a map.
7 Benefits of Early Reading
Brain development
Reading is like exercise for the brain! The young mind is like a sponge that absorbs knowledge and the earlier a child reads the better. It is no surprise that kids who read more are often more intelligent!
Early vocabulary development
A behavior instilled at an early age is a behavior learned for life. Exposing children to words at an earlier age introduces them to lots of new vocabulary and helps them understand how words are used in different contexts. For optimal learning, it’s also important not to overload them with too many new words at once.
Better writing
Writing is a skill. As parents, we may think, “Oh he/she doesn’t intend to be a writer, so why do I need to instill early reading habits?” This mindset is wrong because, if you think about it, writing is needed in every facet of life. Whether it’s writing simple things like birthday cards or complex things like job applications in later life, knowing good words makes all the difference!
Improved reading
This is one of the greatest benefits. The more words kids are exposed to by reading, the better their comprehension skills. When they read and see words they don’t understand, it’s only natural to look them up in the dictionary. When they do, they increase their vocabulary and can recognize more and more words they come across each time they read.
Professional skills
It’s no secret that high proficiency in English is needed in various types of jobs and listed as an acquired skill. Children with high proficiency in English often grow up to be better suited to high-skilled jobs and are an asset to their employers.
Better communication
The same word can have different meanings depending on the context in which it’s used. Understanding this is important to convey what’s intended. When children are exposed to a wide range of words, including those which carry different meanings depending on their context, they can communicate better and express themselves in more ways.
Creating a hobby
Why do you think kids always want to be read bedtime stories? Because it’s fun for them and a soothing activity before drifting off to sleep. This could later develop into a hobby and be an outlet for their relaxation as they grow.
