Reading to children

Reading to children is very important so that they develop a habit of reading, this was the crux of the meeting which was held for all parents in Tana's school. Parents have to build the habit of reading with them so the child will eventually learn to read. The format of teaching here is so different when compared to India, emphasis is laid on a learning with fun, activities and play rather than mugging up things which we eventually forget and never use later in life. Here they teach about the phonetics which helps the child to build up vocabulary and learn faster then learning spellings. Some of the teaching methods are very good but then some are questionable too !
