Literacy-At-Home Ideas
for a New Year!
If you or your child are reading chapter books; use a bookmark.
Have a conversation: talk to your child as often as possible. Try to use advanced vocabulary as children understand oral language more naturally than reading. Your child understands words spoken to them that they might not be able to read, yet!
Have your child tell you a story, or you can tell them a story.
Turn the captions on the TV.
Listen to audiobooks in the car.
(check out the audio book cloud on the Northfield Public Library Website)
