Pre-Reading Skills Your Child Should Master Before He Starts School | Scholastic.com on 2009-10-20

Familiarity with print and books: It's important for your child
to know that people read words, not pictures, and that the words she sees in
print are related to the words she speaks and hears. She also needs to know how
books work — that you begin with the cover right-side up and move from front to

spell. - Letter skills - As well as looking at letters, children
need to learn what sounds the letters can make. - Direction - Print goes from left to right. We know that
but children need to practise it (especially left-handed children). - Motor skills - Since reading and writing are best taught
together, pencil control is important. - Concepts of print - This really means 'how we look at

language, the more easily they will learn to read. Your child needs to hear and
join in conversations (with adults and children), and listen to stories and
poetry of all sorts.
