Reading and Writing Development

Reading and Writing Development Tyesha Woods March 10, 2013 ADE/202 Susan Clark The two age groups that I have chosen ar early childishness and middle childhood. Early childhood ranges from two to six years of age and middle childhood ranges from six to ten years of age. In the beginning stages of early childhood the child would not be removeing or writing just yet. But they would be starting to learn how to read and to write. They should be learning how to recognize letters and how to put them together to form forges.At the end of this stage the child should be able to read and write, or they should be at the beginning stages of reading and writing. The beginning stages of middle childhood the child should be at the beginning stages of reading and writing. By the end of the middle childhood the childs reading and writing skills should be more advance. They should be able to read at a higher level. They should be able to feign spelling lyric poem and look them up in the diction ary, write out the words, and make the words into sentences. For the children in early child the material that I would occasion would be handouts.The handouts will have the letters for the kids to trace. Then they would a beginners reading book. They would have to read the book and they would have to write about what they read. Another affair that I would do, is give the children an assignment where they had to match up the word with the picture. For example if the handout had pictures of a dog, cat, kite and cow the child would have to match the word with the picture. That should help with the reading aspect. For the writing I would have the child write the words out two times each. The material that I would use for the children in middle childhood is vocabulary and reading.I would give spelling words and assign to read a book. As far as the spelling words the initial thing that I would do is have the students write out the words five times each so that they can get know the wor ds. The arcminute thing that I would do is, have the children look up the words in the dictionary. Another thing that I would do is having the students make sentences out of the words that I have given them. The finale thing that I would do is to give the students a spelling test. Now for the reading I would assign the children a book to read and the students, would have to read a few pages at a time.By the end of the week the student should finished the book, and as a spend assignment they would have to write a small book report. The book report would have to tell what they read. I would also beseech the children to write follow up the words that they did not understand. So, that I could take the words and turn them into spelling words. I would do this so that children would have a better understanding of the words that the children did not understand. I feel that these methods will help the children to improve their reading and writing skills. For both groups I would ask the p arents to get involved with the childrens school fit.I would ask the parents to make confident(predicate) that the kids do the work when the children are home. I will give the children work packets to take home so that they can keep practicing their work. The work that I would give would be done when the kids have spring break or on the weekend. I would do this so that the kids will not leave behind what they have learned in school. I would not give so much work that it would take away from the kids time off, but just luxuriant to keep them sharp when it comes to their school work. I would recommend that the parents do the work with the children for two hours out of the day.The parents and the teachers need to work together. That is why I keep axiom that the parents can help the child the teachers can help the child while they are at school. The parents help at home by making sure that the child does the schoolwork and the teacher will check to make sure that the child did the w ork. If the parents and the teachers work together they can both help the child to confirm their reading and writing skills. References Teresa M. McDevitt and Jeanne Ellis Ormrod. (2004).
