This guide will please concerned adults seeking guidance not only on how children learn but also on how to best support this critical skill building in daily life. Incorporating both the core information from research-based early literacy textbooks and the fun of preschool projects, this slim volume is easy to digest but rich in detail. Each chapter covers one core element of learning to read, including how and why children need to build specific skills (such as phonological awareness or vocabulary); goals for measuring success; how-to activities; book recommendations; and a bibliography. Recommended for both professional-reading and circulating collections, especially those targeting parents.
