- Through rewriting reading books, the child practiced their comprehension skills and learned how to summarize the story in their own words.
- They also developed their vocabulary by using different words and phrases to express the same idea or concept.
- This activity helped the child enhance their writing skills as they had to think critically and creatively to rewrite the story in a different way.
