Morning group time

Language and Literacy

• The 3 year old has learned vocabulary words and expanded their language skills by participating in activities like singing songs, reciting rhymes, and listening to stories during morning group time.
• The student has developed early literacy skills such as recognizing letters, understanding concepts of print, and identifying patterns in language through exposure to alphabet activities, books, and printed materials.
• Through sharing and turn-taking during discussions and group activities, the child has improved their communication and social interaction skills, which are essential for language and literacy development.

For continued development, consider incorporating more opportunities for the 3 year old to engage in conversations, ask open-ended questions, and explore various forms of literature such as poetry, non-fiction texts, and multimedia resources to further enhance their language and literacy skills.
