Literacy
Pretend reading is real reading
Talking about TV helps children learn
Sharing books is beginning reading
Watching and listening develops language
Playing with rhymes helps children practise sounds
Other people can read what we write
Making lists is useful writing
Messages can be sent from one place to another
Reading helps us get things done
We can tell stories in lots of ways
Learning to read carefully takes time
Describing things and grouping them develops the language of classifying
Drawing and scribbling lead to writing
Signs and words are all around us
