Mind: Literacy Tips for Parents and Teachers 2.2

The only secret to be revealed in literacy is a constant repetition of basic words! And, thats exactly explain significant role of labeling.

Constant repetition of basic words will help our child recognize them by sight and can also begin to help with letter recognition. This is a very basic step in the learning to read process and will not help with phonics skills. It is, however, a very important step and a fun way for our child to begin to 'know' words on his/r own. 

We could have a stimulated creative environment by together with our child enjoying all of this labeling, too. As stated before, some of the strips of paper can be different sizes, according to the thing being labeled. The strips of paper can also be arranged on things differently.

For example, we can put the word 'window' vertically on the middle bar that separates two windows. And on venetian blinds, we can tape the word 'blinds' to an individual blind so that it is easily read when the blind is closed in the downward position. Our child will think it is so funny, because, when we open the blind it will be harder to read. And if we close the blind in the upward position, you won't be able to read it at all.

To be continued...

Allah s.w.t jua yang Maha Mengetahui segalanya.
