Did you know...
*children who have large vocabularies and lots of experiences using language are more successful in school. (Hart & Risley 1995)
*research has revealed that vocabulary knowledge is the single most important factor contributing to reading comprehension.
So...
TALK, TALK, TALK with your children. Discuss the things around them, answer their questions, ask questions, read non-fiction books. You'll be amazed with how much information they will retain and you'll be contributing to their future comprehension abilities.
