Trace how teaching literacy changes from infants to toddlers to school-age children.
What will be an ideal response?
Infants should be given cloth, soft vinyl, or cardboard books that allow them to use all their senses. Older infants should be given books showing familiar objects. At the toddler age, children love simple stories about familiar events, routines, experiences, and feelings. Also, repetition and rhyme work well. Books should have simple pictures and few words. At school age, reading and writing materials can be incorporated into all classroom areas. In addition, audio- and video-recording equipment can add value to children’s storytelling and other creations. Also, school-age children enjoy forming groups around common interests, which often develop into more formal clubs. Children can be encouraged to publish a newsletter or magazine for their club.
