A strong vocabulary helps develop understanding, communication, and reading ability. _1. Consider the following tips on helping your child develop an impressive vocabulary
Let Your Child Tell the Story
Perhaps you read nightly to your child or take turns doing so. Of course, this is an excellent way to expand reading and vocabulary skills. 2. Then, let your child charge the end of the rope of his imagination wherever his imagination leads
3.
In short, you need to take an active role. If you want your children's language skills to improve, take their vocabulary questions seriously. When they express curiosity about a word, be sure to teach the correct definition and pronunciation
Correct Mistakes with Care
4. However. it's essential not to scold them when they make such mistakes. Rather, point out what they got right, and then review the proper way to use and or speak the word. The more fun and positive an experience, the more interested and able your children will be in expanding their vocabulary
Do Be Patient
You may need to repeat words and meanings many times before your child fully grasps the concept .This is completely normal 5. Children develop at their own paces .The most important thing is to honor and balance their needs so that learning doesn't become struggle. While you want them to get ahead, you don't want them to develop pressure with trying to do so
A. Try Your Best to Correct Them B. Pay More Attention to Your Kid’s Vocabulary C. It’s natural for children to mispronounce or misuse new words. D. It’s important for children to mispronounce new words while learning. E. That’s why parents should do what they can to help kids learn new words. F. Further, if your neighbor’s child has twice the vocabulary yours does, it’s not worth stressing over. G. However, on occasion, feel free to put the book down and ask your child to create a story to tell you. |
