Parent Handbook to Promote Literacy

The parents can read to the children various bedtime stories in English before going to sleep. Even though they may not understand everything, they will remember certain English words which they can apply in their conversations with other children. Also, parents can tune into an English broadcasting station and leave it in the compound where the children play (Timmons, Vianne). This will occasionally listen to the speakers and may understand one or two words said in English. The process of learning a language in children involves listening to words said and thus leaving the radio on within the compound will increase their exposure to the English language and thus faster learning. com/contact_us. aspx (Petruzzi, Tony, and Mary Frances Burns) Works Cited Petruzzi, Tony, and Mary Frances Burns.
