We love a good book here at AOFC! We also know that books are essential to a child's learning and development. Literacy is one of the most important skills a child learns. Did you know that 90% of brain development happens between infancy and five years of age? This rapid growth makes language skills a critical part of a child’s development. Promoting early literacy sets the foundation for learning, encourages higher performance reading, and introduces social-emotional development. We choose books that are written with the intention of promoting imaginative thinking and creativity. These carefully chosen books also include key vocabulary words to encourage the development of language skills. Lets check out some of this reading in action!
It is never too early to introduce literacy to a child!
Look at one of our sweet littles engaging in "Little Boy Blue"
The PreK kiddos have had years of reading exposure at this point.
Some of them are even reading back to us!
Reading as a group can be so much fun!
This allows for awesome Question and Answer after the book which, in turn, helps with memory retention and the ability to follow a story line!
Our Preschool Class is diving into one of our Frog Street curriculum books. They're all so engaged!
How sweet! Look at how into this book she is!
We love seeing our littles so interested in reading!
This PreK friend is reading the book out loud!
Way to go buddy!!
For infants, reading is more than just literacy development.
This babes are able to help turn the pages and develop their fine motor skills!
