A
baby’s brain thrives on stimulation and develops at a phenomenal
pace…nearly 90% during the first five years of life! The best and
easiest time to learn a language is during the infant and toddler
years, when the brain is creating thousands of synapses every second –
allowing a child to learn both the written word and spoken word
simultaneously, and with much more ease.
Dr. Titzer says the
current practice of starting to teach reading skills in school is too
late and children benefit greatly from getting a much earlier start
since a child basically has only one natural window for learning
language -- from about birth to about age four. During this period it
is easier for a child to learn any type of language including spoken,
receptive, foreign and written language. The earlier the child is
taught to read the better they will read and the more likely they will
enjoy it.
Studies prove that the earlier a child learns
to read, the better they perform in school and later in life. Early
readers have more self-esteem and are more likely to stay in school.
Meanwhile, a national panel of reading specialists and educators
determined that most of the nation’s reading problems could be
eliminated if children began reading earlier.
Maybe the correct question is…Why should parent delay teaching a child
to read when the most natural time to learn language is during the
infant and toddler years?
