Learning to read is built on a foundation of language skills
that children start to learn at birth--a process that is both complicated and amazing. Most children develop certain
skills as they move through the early stages of learning language. By age 7, most children are reading.
The following list of accomplishments is based on current scientific research in the fields of reading, early childhood education, and child development. Studies continue in their
fields, and there is still much still to learn. As you look over the accomplishments, keep in mind that children vary a great deal in how they develop and learn.
If you have questions or concerns about your child's progress, talk with the child's doctor, teacher, or a speech and language therapist. For children with any kind of disability or
learning problem, the sooner they can get the special help they need, the easier it will be for them to learn.
From birth to age 3, most babies and toddlers become able to:
*Make sounds that imitate the tones and rhythms that adults use when talking.
*Respond to gestures and facial expressions.
*Begin to associate words they hear frequently with what the words mean.
*Make cooing, babbling sounds in the crib, which gives way to enjoying rhyming and nonsense word games with a parent or caregiver.
*Play along in games such as "peek-a-boo" and "pat-a-cake."
*Handle objects such as board books and alphabet blocks in their play.
*Recognize certain books by their covers.
*Pretend to read books.
