5 Early Literacy Practices
Early literacy is the pre-reading & pre-writing skills a child should
know before starting Kindergarten. Every Child Ready to Read
created 5 Early Literacy Practices to help parents and caregivers
nurture early literacy anywhere at anytime. Here are the five
practices:





Talk about the activity or book you are sharing with your child.
Sing or make up songs while doing chores, building blocks, etc.
Read books, magazines, signs, and much more with your child.
Write the letters of the alphabet, create a story, or draw shapes.
Play makes learning fun, so play with words, books, puppets, etc. to reinforce
your child’s pre-reading and pre-writing skills.
Parents, you are your child’s first teacher, and you already use these 5 practices
everyday to support early literacy. Through Every Child Ready to Read, you can
learn new ways to expand and explore reading and writing with the 5 practices.
