FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC Our culture no longer views reading literature as simply its primary means for escape and adventure. It is now recognized that there is value in reading poems, plays, fiction, and humorous pieces, whether for enjoyment or for purposes of bibliotherapy (See Aiex, 1993). Literature should be an important part of any classroom reading program. This digest focuses on the different types of literatureliterary genresand particularly on the folktale. The analysis of different types of literature promotes cognitive development because it gives students an opportunity to apply similar skills and strategies, such as identifying themes discussed in one genrefiction, for exampleto other genres like poetry, reports, descriptive pieces, and plays (Smith, 1991). SCHEMA THEORY The major intellectual function that each literary genre provides can be examined in terms of schema theory. Schema theorists assume that concepts are organized in our minds in groups that have an understandable network, at least understandable to the individual (Bartlett, 1932).

Extractions: Learning Disabilities To Succeed The National Center to Improve the Tools of Educators TIPS FOR PARENTS Parents can have a strong positive influence on their child's reading. Research has shown that enjoying books with a child for even a few minutes a day can make a measurable difference in the acquisition of basic reading skills, and that everyday activities - such as a trip to the grocery store -can be turned into enjoyable learning experiences. Create Appreciation of the Written Word Find time to read aloud with your child every day. Typically, parents play an important role in developing this skill by reading to children and showing how important reading is to their daily life. Lap time with picture books and stories can strongly motivate your child to enjoy reading. Try to make these books available for your children to explore and enjoy on their own as well.

Reading, after all, provides the foundation for a great education as well as a lifelong skill that brings not only knowledge, but pleasure. Research on reading and learning to read shows that there are things that can be done at home from an early age that help children become successful as readers. The following suggestions, which are backed up by research, should be especially helpful to parents and caregivers of young children. Teaching young children to recognize the letters of the alphabet is a big boost to reading readiness. Recognizing alphabet letters is one of the single strongest predictors of reading success for young children entering school. Alphabet recognition lays a critical foundation for learning to read and write. Reading to children helps them to understand about books and print.

But ask every day. That will send your children the clear message that their schoolwork is important to you and you expect them to learn. Here are just some of the reasons it is important for parents to be actively involved in their child's education: The family makes critical contributions to student achievement from pre-school through high school. A home environment that encourages learning is more important to student achievement than income, education level or cultural background. (Henderson and Berla)

Extractions: Seoul Education Training Institute (Seoul, Korea) My interest in using storybooks for teaching English began when I was teaching middle-school students in Korea. My search for material which could provide a basis for conversation and writing in my classes led me to try some of the many all-English storybooks available. Later I began using them to teach English to two elementary-school students whom I taught on the telephone. The latter experience has been so successful that it motivated me to write this paper. The middle-school students had been exposed to a lot of English vocabulary. Nevertheless, when I presented them with a page of English writing with no or very little new vocabulary, I was surprised to find that they seemed to have great difficulty with it. "Teacher, this is very difficult!" they would say to me. I concluded that they were lacking in ability to process English. T heir English training has focused mainly on the level of single words (vocabulary lists) and translation into their native language. Reading selections in their elementary and middle-school texts are short and usually accompanied by native language support. Perhaps this is why the students had not moved to the point where, upon encountering words memorized, they were able to instantly connect them to the mental concepts embodied. Their processing probably was mainly occurring in their native language.

Helping Children Learn to Read Download Document LearnToRead.doc for easier printing (Microsoft Word format) By Susan Levene December 15, 1998 Introduction Some children learn to read effortlessly, some children struggle to learn to read, and some children need specific intervention and to be taught decoding techniques before being able to read. The goal of this article is to help those involved with teaching young people to read understand how we learn to read and provide techniques to help children who struggle. I have gained this knowledge through working with young children learning to read and reading the research literature on the subjects of learning and reading. I hope this article will be useful for parents, teachers and anyone else in interested in improving children's reading skills. The article contains the following sections: Stages of Reading When Children Learn to Read Diagnosing Slow to Learn Readers Intervention Techniques for Children under 7 ... About the Author By understanding the stages of reading, we are better able to diagnose the problem a child is having. I have provided guidelines about when children learn to read to help us make informed decisions on the amount of intervention that is needed for a specific child. I've tried to present my strategies for diagnosing reading problems and some solutions to help students overcome their difficulties.

http://www.vtaide.com/png/ERIC/Read-Difficulties.htm

Extractions: Almost everyone knows a story about the nice little youngster (or sometimes, a grownup) who works hard but can't seem to learn to read and to write. The child's mother works with him or her at home, reading to the child and reading with the child. The child has a tutor at school. The youngster tries with all his/her might, even to the point of tears, but the symbols and the words won't stick. Though apparently learned today at great pain, tomorrow they will be gone. The question is: what do we know about problem readers that will help us guide them? This digest will discuss children with reading difficulties and how these children can be helped to read and learn more effectively. Most children begin reading and writing by the first, second, or third grade. By the time they are adults, most can't recall or can't remember what it was like not to be able to read and write, or how difficult it was to figure out how to translate patterns on a page into words, thoughts, and ideas. These same adults usually cannot understand why some children have not yet begun to read and write by the third grade. They have even more difficulty understanding how adults can function in our society with only the most rudimentary literacy skills. Dyslexia is perhaps the learning disability that is most widely known, primarily because of Barbara Bush's efforts to make adults aware of the problem of children with this and other learning disabilities. Stories about children (and adults) trying to overcome their learning disabilities appear in the mass media with some regularity. Despite the relative familiarity of the word "dyslexia," there is no clear-cut, widely accepted definition for dyslexia. In the broadest sense, dyslexia refers to the overwhelming difficulty in learning to read and write by normally intelligent children exposed to suitable educational opportunities in school and at home. These often very verbal children's reading levels fall far below what would have been predicted for their quick and alert intelligence (Bryant and Bradley, 1985).

If we have no established schema for the content, structure, or function of a play, then we may be unable to apply thinking skills to compare characters and predict conclusions. We probably learned those skills in the context of reading short stories, but we may not recognize the opportunity to apply those same thinking skills when reading a play. Therefore each type of literature presented to a young reader serves two important functions: to develop a schema for the literary genre and to encourage the application of thinking skills in a variety of literary engagements (Smith, 1991).

When my kids were little newborn babies, I read to them. When they were toddlers, I read to them. I have been a Sunday school Teacher for the Ages 2-4 class for 8 years. I can now tell the parents who read to their kids before the toddler stage. A child who was read to when he was to little to get up and walk away, will sit much more quietly and longer, than one who wasn't. I am not a fool, I know that they will get bored eventually. Still a toddler who was read to as a baby will sit longer.

Reading is a fundamental part of your child's education. And, while the schools teach this important subject, you can do your part as a concerned parent to help your child achieve a higher level of reading success. The ideal time to start reading is when your child is old enough to sit quietly with you and listen to you read. Depending on the maturity level of your child, when he or she reaches three years of age, it should be time to start. Point at each word as you read it and try to encourage your child to follow along. THis might not be an easy task, as a child's attention span tends to be rather short, but don't give up. It will be well worth the effort in the end. bodyOffer(22480) Read to your child throughout the day or whenever time allows. Don't just read to your child at bedtime. He or she needs as much exposure to books and reading as possible. If you work outside of the home, ask the babysitter to read to your child as much as possible throughout the time the babysitter is there. When you read to your child, be sure to include him or her in the process as much as possible by letting them at least turn the pages of the book. Also, point out the words and the pictures. Depending on your child's age, ask your child questions about the pictures he or she sees. If your child is old enough to have developed an adequate level of reading comprehension, ask your child simple questions about the story to test them.

Extractions: Why read a book to an infant who does not yet know the meaning of a wordor of words at all? Why sing to a toddler who cannot understand your song? Both of these activities help children make connections between words and meaning. They also help to create a warm, safe environment for children and lead to a lifetime love of reading and learning. Some parents assume that learning to read starts with memorizing the alphabet and sounding out words, but actually the fundamentals of reading begin much earlier. Adults lay the foundation for reading every day, when they point out objects and describe what they are doing while dressing an infant, grocery shopping with a toddler, or cooking with a preschooler. The most important thing is that teaching children about reading becomes an activity that brings children closer to the caring adults in their lives. Here are some tips for families who want to help their children make connections between meaning and words. Talk or sing to your baby when you change his diaper, give him a bath, feed him lunch or join him in play.
