2 - 3 year olds Duration: 30 minutes
Yes - literacy development can start this early! In fact it is essential that young children are engaged with stories, reading and language development.
During these classes, children are introduced to letter/sound relationships and are engaged in
literacy activities that teach concepts about print.
3 - 4 year olds Duration: 45 minutes
These classes are designed for children who are 3 years of age and will complement a 3 Year Old pre-school program.
We understand that not all children attend Kindergarten. If your child is not attending any pre-school sessions, Road to Reading would be ideal for their social and academic development.
During these classes, children explore letter/sound relationships. They are given modelled
instruction on concepts about print and participate in fun games to consolidate their learning.
4 - 6 year olds Duration: 1 hour
These classes are designed for children who are aged between 4 – 6 years of age and are enrolled in 4 year old Kindergarten. The program is ideal to prepare students for school and equip them with pre-reading knowledge.
During these classes, children discover the letter/sound relationships. They will explore
language and pre-reading concepts through literacy games, group activities and teacher instruction. Students will have an opportunity to take home activities that help to consolidate their learning.
