NEW IN CHILDREN’S WORLD!
KITS FOR KIDS
Kits were developed to help parents, teachers, and childcare providers develop early literacy skills to be sure children are READY TO READ once they begin school.
Children who enter kindergarten should have the following pre-reading skills:
- Knowing words and their meanings
- Enjoying books
- Noticing printed words
- Describing things and events
- Hearing the smaller sounds in words
- Knowing the names and sounds of letters
A FRESH NEW WAY TO PROMOTE LITERACY AT HOME OR IN THE CLASSROOM.
- Children’s World now has 53 thematic backpacks for circulation.
- Each child-sized backpack comes complete with a book; a puppet, plush toy, a CD or other related props; and an activity card with ideas for bringing the story to life and building literacy skills.
- These new “KITS FOR KIDS” may be checked out for 3 weeks.
