    Theodor Seuss Geisel (1904 - 1991) or Dr Seuss as he is better known, credited his mother for his need to create the rhymes for which he become so well known. She would soothe her children to sleep by singing rhymes which she remembered from her childhood.

  • Writing comes from reading

    Submitted by admin on Mon, 10/05/2009 - 12:13

          
     
    There is much research to support the fact that an exposure to books and reading, helps children with their creative writing. A child who is familiar with the conventions of different text types is much more able to compose their own texts or stories.
     

  • Making reading a richer and more interesting experience

    Submitted by admin on Sun, 09/27/2009 - 10:46

    One of the biggest challenges a parent has, is to find books for their dyslexic child which are interesting and within their reading level.

    When I first started my course, I remember walking into Kinokunya in search of a book for a 7 yr old child I was teaching. It was early days for me so I didn't put much thought into the font; I was more concerned about the book content and reading level.

    It was only when he began reading that I realised that he was unfamiliar with the font and this made reading that much more difficult.
