- The child practiced reading comprehension by engaging with a visual & audio book for 2 hours.
- They developed listening skills while following along with the audio component of the book.
- The visual elements of the book helped the child make connections between words and images.
- Through the book of their choice, the child expanded their vocabulary and exposure to different writing styles.
Continued development can be encouraged by incorporating discussions about the book. Encourage the child to share their favorite parts, characters, or events from the story. You can also ask open-ended questions to spark their critical thinking, such as "What do you think will happen next?" or "Why do you think the character made that choice?" Additionally, consider engaging in related activities like drawing scenes from the book or writing a short summary of the story.
