Why is Teaching Rhymes important for Pre School Students?

posted in: ECE - Academics | 0

Rhyming is one of the best forecasters of how easily a child will learn to read?

That’s because good rhymers are better equipped to notice that rhyming words often have shared letter sequences, such as –all in tallball, and small, which in turn gives them a considerable head start in learning to read.

Most children enjoy hearing and participating in rhyming activities, and when they are exposed to rhyming, they usually pick it up naturally.

  • Rhyming is an important pre-reading skill that reaps dividends later on.
  • The ability to rhyme occurs in three unique stages.
  • Use books, games, and engaging activities to promote rhyming ability.

It may not happen overnight, but with repeated exposure, your child will learn to rhyme.

Most importantly, keep your rhyming practice fun and light—it shouldn’t feel like a “lesson” to a young child.
