It's FOL Friday! FOL is an acronym for Foundations of Learning: statements Kindermusik educators use to help us explain to parents the "why" and "so what" behind many of the things we do in class. Be sure to visit this site weekly for an interesting FOL, perhaps providing a window into your child's growing body and mind.
THE BENEFITS OF READING ALOUD
Most parents and teachers understand that regularly reading aloud to a child is beneficial, but do you know why? Reading increases your child's understanding of the world, vocabulary, familiarity with written language and overall interest in becoming literate. Read to your children at home. Ask grandparents, aunts, uncles and babysitters to read to your children. Allow older siblings to read bedtime stories to their younger brothers or sisters. Encourage other family members to read to their children at home-the larger the variety of fluent readers your child hears, the better.
Every Kindermusik curriculum includes story time. Like all things Kindermusik, it is carefully placed in the curriculum because of its direct connection with literacy development. The stories read aloud during class are designed to complement the curriculum theme and are included in the home materials. Try a free class. Attend a demo. Come, see for yourself, the benefits Kindermusik can provide for your child.
