Young children who perform better than their peers in reading do so for several reasons, but one of the
most overlooked is this – lots of family talk. Far too many young children come to school with poor oral
language skills because they just don’t know enough words. The good news is that helping a young child
is simple. By engaging kids in rich stories and having meaningful conversations with them, you – as a
parent or a daycare provider or a preschool teacher – can help improve their oral language skills, which
will eventually help them become better readers.
This 60-minute webcast stresses the importance of working with young children early to develop
language and pre-reading skills. It will provide adults who work with young children with research-based
strategies that can help lay the foundation for building strong readers. This webcast is sponsored in part
by Scholastic, the global children’s publishing, education and media company.
