A bonus with<br>using large paper on the wall is that they have ample enough space to draw to their<br>heart\u2019s desire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, reading and writing doesn\u2019t even need paper or the wall for that matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here are the following top 10 ways to support literacy development for children<br>age 0 through 8.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"542\" height=\"361\" src=\"https:\/\/fiolinaearlylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Captura-de-pantalla-2022-08-10-112808.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fiolinaearlylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Captura-de-pantalla-2022-08-10-112808.png 542w, https:\/\/fiolinaearlylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Captura-de-pantalla-2022-08-10-112808-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 542px) 100vw, 542px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Photo by Tatiana Syrikova on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/girl-drawing-in-notebook-while-mother-working-remotely-nearby-3975654\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pexels.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf Take notice and wonder about signs and labels throughout your day. We are<br>surrounded by signs. Most often, children will tell you what they mean. Ask and<br>wonder by saying: \u201chmmm, I wonder what that red octagon is?\u201d Or play a game<br>of eye spy with signs!<br>\u25cf Play and sing rhyming songs, the sillier the better! Children will love it!! Rhyme<br>their name and change letters and sounds.<br>\u25cf Make a sound wall as you spell out the silly sounds.<br>\u25cf Make up stories from your brain in sequential order with a beginning, middle and<br>end. Invite special storytellers from Grandparents to Authors.<br>\u25cf Make prop boxes as children retell and reenact their favorite stories.<br>\u25cf Get sticks and sand or even use dirt. Draw images and letters. Don\u2019t push letters<br>until children show interest. Remember it\u2019s much more than the Abcs!

Children can also illustrate it.<br>Remember images become words as we read them. Or in reverse: a child will<br>draw a picture and have them tell its story.<br>\u25cf Read the book: Max\u2019s Words and inspire children to start their own word<br>collection by looking through magazines and newspapers.<br>\u25cf Use the window to draw and write<br>\u25cf Use the sidewalk (chalk) or even paintbrushes and water as children draw and<br>write their stories.<br>\u25cf Bonus: Play movement games from freeze dance to clapping games such as Ms.<br>Mary Mack. **In fact, listen to music and change the lyrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Most of all, have fun and be present throughout the literacy process.
