๐ Story Stones ๐ชจ Step into the literacy adventure with Story Stones! ๐ชจโจ See how they spark creativity and enhance storytelling skills: ๐ Enhanced Vocabulary: As children share themed images on the stones, they're introduced to new words and concepts. This vocabulary enrichment lays a strong foundation for improved language development. ๐ Improved Comprehension: Engaging with the visual prompts on the stones helps children understand story elements such as characters, setting, and plot, enhancing their comprehension skills. ๐ง Cognitive Development: Imaginative play and storytelling stimulate cognitive processes, fostering creativity, problem-solving skills, and emotional development. Want to make your own Story Stones? Hereโs how to get started: Collect small, smooth stones and paint them with images of different settings, characters, and objects. Place them in a basket and encourage children to pick a stone to inspire their stories or imaginative play scenes. #TroutandHeron #Microschool #GradesK-5 #LiteracyBuilding #StoryStones #ImaginativePlay #VocabularyDevelopment #ComprehensionSkills #LearningThroughPlay

We built the word "Respect" with our friends and then colored in bubbles of things we respect. This was to open our unit on respect this past week. We focused on all the areas of Whirlybird that we respect: our space, our teachers, our friends, our rules, and each other. When making this respect poster we asked the friends some things they respect and their answers included: "everyone's head," "Dad's truck because it drives me to school," "my parents and me," "I respect the sun because it shines," and "all my family." This quiet moment of reflection was such a special way to start our unit of respect with intention. We also, of course, had to listen to Respect by Arethra Franklin! . . . . . . . . . #preschool #natureschool #naturepreschool #outdooreducation #environmentaleducation #greenlearning #resoect #preschoolunit #literacybuilding #artsandcrafts #littlelearners

There are many, many reasons to read rhymes to children. I've highlighted four big reasons, but the main point not listed here is IMAGINATION. I left this out because, as a parent, you are focused on a child's speech, language development, reading comprehension, etc. Rarely do we worry about their sense of imagination, but I am here to tell you how important it actually is. When you create a rhyme for any reason, you need to go through the list of words that, well, rhyme with each other. This process opens the door to so many variations and possibilities of what could be. We, as adults, find a word that rhymes and determine if something doesn't make sense. For instance, if someone says, "The cat flew with grace, leaving a trace," we might question the meaning since cats typically don't fly, helping us spot inconsistencies. However, children are still learning what is fathomable and what isn't, so having them run through different possibilities can expand their mind to out-of-the-box ideas, simply because some words fit. Then the story takes on a life of its own. For instance, if a child hears a sentence like "The moon danced with a spoon," they might think about various possibilities โ imagining a playful moon or a magical spoon. This encourages creative thinking as they explore different interpretations and broaden their understanding of language and concepts. Want to learn more about reading to your little ones? Sign up for our course, "Reading With Littles.โ Link in Bio #rhymingtime #parentingtips #earlyliteracy #parentingadvice #rhymesandreason #parentingjourney #literacyskills #parentinghacks #rhymingfun #parenting101 #literacybuilding #parentingstrategies #rhymingwithkids #parentingwin #literacyeducation #parentinggoals #rhymingmagic #parentingstyle #literacyforall #parentinglife #raisingreaders #parentinginsights #rhymingisfun #parentingtipoftheday
How I Became a Pirate | Melinda Long & David Shannon | โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ My second graders enjoyed this fun book! ๐ดโโ ๏ธ It was full of adventure and imagination as Jeremy ditched his sand castle-building and took to the life of a pirate. It had a sweet ending with its subtle message of finding gratitude in โboring, normal lifeโ. Iโd say it fell more into the light & fun category than moral-teaching, which is sometimes just what youโre looking for. Note: There is one page with a female (Jeremyโs mom) in a swimsuit that a couple of my students were a little goofy over (it just shows a lot of her thighโI didnโt acknowledge as itโs simply a mom and her body!) If youโre familiar with David Shannonโs other books (i.e. โNo Davidโs bottom), then it was super mild. Have you read this to your class?

There are three essential parts of reading that largely affect early readers and determine how easy it will be to develop their reading skills efficiently. 1. Phonics: the process of identifying letter sounds can support any early reader to identify the differences between sounds, letters, and their different combinations. 2. Vocabulary: words formed together through combining letters and sounds (also known as etymology) support readers to develop strong speech and diction. 3. Comprehension: the process of understanding and interpreting information while reading supports the build-up of knowledge and creativity. These three parts may seem simple enough on their own, but each holds the power to enable early readers to be highly successful as they grow older. Which of these parts are you emphasizing as you read with your child? PS:I have a parent workshop coming out soon that'll expose you to the most efficient and supportive strategies you can use to support your child's literacy development. DM me WORKSHOP to learn more! #blackparents #blackparenting #literacybuilding #literacyforkids #earlyliteracysupport #literacysupport #theparentpartner #raisingblackandbrownboys #raisingblackkids #blackandbrownboys #blackparenthelp #coachingparents #parentcoaching #literacyresources #parentingadvice #literacyadvice #literacystrategies #literacytips #parentworkshop #parentingstrategies #blackchildrenreading #parentsupport #childreadingsupport
Studies have shown that children's reading skills skyrocket when they experience hands-on guidance from parents or guardians. This means that when they have the opportunity to read with an adult who purposefully gestures towards words, pictures, sounds, etc when reading together, they are most likely to build literacy skills than when they are left to figure it out. Not every child has the in-born drive to explore literacy and some have their adventurous drive in other developmental areas, especially boys. So here's a challenge to you. Practice gesturing to the words, pictures, sounds, etc in the books you read with your child. You'd be surprised how fast they pick up the skills they need to move into literacy with ease.

Are you looking for effective and inexpensive ways to support your child's reading habits? Listed above are five specific ways you can begin encouraging your child's reading habits that can be done all from the comfort of your home. 1. Performing read aloud daily can enable you to connect with your child as they learn and grow in his/her literacy skills. 2. Creating a safe reading haven at home can ignite a special passion for literacy for your child. 3. Limiting daily screen time will force your child to explore learning through books and other endeavors supporting well-rounded growth. 4. Modeling the 5 senses when reading (especially during read aloud) will help your child identify and register information faster. 5. Curating diverse book genres will give your child an opportunity to build interest and knowledge in different subject areas. Even though these are just five out of the many daily activities you can do to support your child when it comes to reading, they are effective when you are consistent and dedicated. So pick one and try it out today! Start building a healthy habit of supporting your child through their reading adventures. Which daily support are you currently practicing? Share in the comments.

You are the first role model that your son ever encounters...even in literacy development. It is to your benefit as a parent to consider the approaches you use to motivate your son(s) about literacy development. It's all about applying the right balance of need and appreciation so that they too can develop their own love for reading. Now, this doesn't mean that every child is going to love reading just because you do or because you show them how fun it can be. However, that's the most challenging part. To continue motivating them towards developing their literacy through your example will stay with them and will give then the drive they need to build their literacy comprehension as they grow. It all starts with respectful and adventurous early literacy explorations! Ready to start taking the right approach? Share in the comments! PS: DM workshop to learn more about my upcoming literacy workshop for parents that will change the way you approach reading with your early readers! #blackparents #blackparenting #earlyliteracy #earlyliteracytips #earlyliteracysupport #parentworkshop #parentsupport #theparentpartner #parentcoaching #coachingparents #raisingbrilliantblackandbrownboys #blackandbrownboys #literacydevelopment #literacystrategies #literacybuilding

Latepost: Sentence building using oromotor skills! Weโd played this really simple Valentines themed activity using red hearts with various cvc and sight words written onto them and a straw!! Game rules: I spoke a short sentence and Miss I picked the hearts with the words in that sentence using ONLY a straw and place them orderly to form that sentence. She then had to read the sentence herself. This is currently her interest (reading and making short sentences). Using the straw was a great oromotor exercise for her making this game very interesting for her. #exploreandplayyourway #playinfebruary #create_play_inspire #thebookishplayway #learningisfunwithus #phonics #teachingphonics #reading #learningtoread #oromotorskills #handsonlearning #literacybuilding #teachingideas #earlyreaders #raisingreaders #breathingexercisesforkids #learnwithsimpleplay #lilmissiracorn

Today the celebration of Black History month. I don't feature very many history books generally, my book recommendations are geared towards the under seven crowd. When I do choose historical books for young children I focus on simple Biography centered books that don't rely on an understanding of time. Celebrating this month with a small child might also mean choosing joyful storybooks written and illustrated by Black creators like "You Matter." "You Matter" by Christian Robinson, a reminder to all readers that, no matter where you are in life, who you are or how you feel, your personhood matters.ย Gently written, and timely. The art tells several stories beyond the text. I would also urge you to follow Black Bookstagrammers for their recommendations. I recommend following: @littleblackbooknook @ihaveabook4that @hereweeread @scarsandcrowns @dramamamareads @theartoffun @simonandschuster @simonkids #blackhistorymonth #kidsbooks #childrensliterature #kidsbookreviews #literacybuilding #teachersfollowteachers #teachertips #homeschoolideas #kidsreading

๐ผ๐Day of the Dead๐๐ผ Today we started looking at this celebration by brainstorming what we know (or think we know) with a WWW and Facts or Falsehoods task. Our next step is to view some visual texts to develop new knowledge as well as create our own classroom "ofrenda". #dayofthedead #whatdoyouknow #whatdoyouthink #whatdoyouwonder #factsordalsehoods #literacybuilding #readingstrategies #literacyinlanguages #eldรญadelosmuertos #secondaryeducator #insidemyclassroom #highschoolteacher #iteachteens #mumofteens #motherofdaughters #teachersfollowteachers #instateacher #teachersofinstagram #aussieteachers #teachersofig #igteachers #teachersofinstagram #spanishteacher #spanishclassroom #plpteacher
