6、edge as well as lifelong pleasure?1. Good readers start out ahead.Reading scores in Year One are a key indicator of school success in Year Eleven. What hap- pens in the very early years has a lasting effect on learning. So try these tips with young children:The more you read, talk and sing to babies
7、, the greater their foundation for vocabulary and understanding. The youngest ones are amazingly receptive to language.Toddlers (初学走路的孩子) will sit still to interact with books if you arouse their interest with questions like “Whos that?“ and “What else do you see?“Preschool is the time for children
8、to begin to learn the alphabet, and to become aware of the sounds that make up words-a crucial skill for reading known as phonemic awareness (音位意识).

Try echo reading to build fluency: You read a passage and then let your child read one. Call your childs att
10、ention to punctuation and interesting words as you read.2. Good readers have better vocabularies.Think about the conversations youve had with your child today. Theres a good chance that- because of the busy lives parents lead-most of the words you use are simple, immediate and directive. For example
11、, “Its time to go now!“ Especially on our busiest days, its easy for parents to forget that kids look to us for varied and rich conversations. From Year Three on, kids need to learn about 3000 new words a year-thats eight new words a day. And it takes at least four exposures to make a word their own
12、. To enrich your childs word power, try these ideas:Tell stories about the past, present and future. At dinnertime, relate a story about your childhood or ask about an upcoming school event.Encourage play. According to child development expert Sue Bredekamp, its a crucial way for children to develop
13、 their language skills.Read a variety of books-picture books, stories with rhymes, science or history books that convey cool new information.

15、l whats happened; ask what might happen next.4. Good readers picture a story in the mind.Children who do this are better at remembering details and are much more interested in reading for pleasure. Encourage your child to notice a characters features or clothing, for example.5. Good readers connect
16、to what theyre reading.Comments from you help create engaged readers: “This story reminds me of the time.“ or “I wonder if that character.“. Soon your child will be eager to make his or her own links.PREPARING your child to be a good reader is one of the greatest gifts you can give as a parent. Kids
17、 who often struggle over words and have trouble understanding text find little enjoyment in the process. They avoid reading, and it shows in a study of American Year Five students, the most greedy readers spent more than 50 times as many minutes a day reading for pleasure as less fluent readers. By
18、years end, the better readers had read more than two million more words, creating an even wider gap of proficiency and knowledge.Academic achievement certainly isnt the only reason to nurture reading skills.
