Book excerpt: According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, children introduced to reading early on tend to excel in school compared to children who are not exposed to language and books at a young age. While the building blocks of literacy begin at infancy, a child as young as 3 years old has the ability to read basic words and short sentences. According to the National Institute for Literacy, researchers have found strong evidence that children can learn reading and writing in their earliest years, long before they go to school. Is your child interested in learning his or her ABCs? Does your child play with books and interact with you and the story while being read to? The most important factor in determining whether your child is ready to learn to read is his or her enthusiasm for learning. If your child has begun to express an interest in reading, this book will provide you with the tools for teaching him or her the basics of phonics and promoting a love for reading -- one of the best gifts a parent can offer a child. How to Teach Your Preschooler to Read In 30 Days addresses some basic questions you might have about the benefits of reading as a preschooler, the keys for teaching a child to read, and the tools and supplies you need to create an effective classroom in your home. This book provides lesson plans for a four-week instruction program. You will begin by introducing a set of preliminary sounds and letters and incorporating these letters into games. Once your child has mastered these words, you can teach him or her more complex sounds and words, and your child will begin to construct simple sentences. This book includes short stories you can use to continue your child's reading instruction after completing the four-week program. Games, visual cues, and role-playing -- the main means of learning for children ages 3 to 5 --provide an entertaining environment in which your child can perform his or her best. This book also addresses how babysitters and other caregivers can help teach your child to read and shows you how to create a reading record book so caregivers can provide you with proper feedback on the progress your child made while you were away. This book also addresses how to speak with teachers about your child's reading abilities upon entering school to ensure he or she continues learning. We spent hundreds of hours interviewing early childhood development educators and parents who shared their tips and advice for not only teaching your child how to read, but also instilling a lifelong love of words in their hearts. In a world where a college degree is becoming the new high school diploma, make sure your child is keeping up with the times by establishing his or her literacy at an early age with this helpful book.
