Reading Writing Is A Must To Learn English

---

Today's digital age, where electronic devices are prevalent, presents a challenge to parents. Due to this, reading and writing skills are often overlooked. Many children face difficulties in these areas, even if they excel in other subjects. Research shows that excessive use of electronic screens can hinder children's language development, particularly in reading and writing

The foundation of learning English or any other language is literacy. Being part of your child's literacy journey involves more than buying them books and watching them read. It's about helping them understand what they read and encouraging discussions about the content, both verbally and in writing. To support your child's success in their English learning journey, we've compiled strategies to help them master reading and writing skills

Actively Read out the Words
For children in the early reading stage, read alongside them loudly. Literacy will take shape once they are used to seeing and hearing the words. This is the basis of learning phonics and engraving phonemic awareness

Always encourage your child to pronounce the words. Use pictures or real-life objects that relate to the words they are trying to pronounce. If there are any words that they are struggling with, let them write those words. This would stimulate their motor skills and establish their writing technique. From there they will develop a connection to the language and use that to describe the world around them. Based on the reading material, ask questions that enable them to recall what they have just read. This would help them start conversations naturally

Confidence in Writing is by Practicing
Practicing writing here does not simply refer to them doing writing exercises in a book. It is to let them experience and practice writing freely. Journaling is a common concept as it encourages children to compartmentalize their emotions and thoughts onto a piece of paper. There are also card-writing and letter-writing that help them write to a person

The aim of having them practice is for them to grow more confident in their writing technique and writing out their voice. Read with them what they write and ask them to try again if some words remain unclear

Comprehensive Learning Program
A more effective method than participating in various activities is structured learning through a program that systematically teaches reading and writing to children. It would be particularly beneficial if this program offered an integrated approach to teaching the English language. The learning environment of the program can also accelerate their learning while ensuring that they achieve full mastery
