How do we learn about reading and writing at Creative Scholars?
Words matter, and at Creative Scholars Preschool, we engage with words every day by
practicing skills associated with reading and writing. We offer access to children’s books created
by a diverse range of authors covering various topics.
We use reading and writing as an opportunity to help children develop skills in understanding
language overall. Our teachers focus on developing skills in reading comprehension, word
association, and storytelling.
We also use reading and writing as an opportunity to engage children physically. We emphasize
fine motor skills and core strength in our classrooms. Our teachers guide children through the
process of holding a pencil and making marks on the page. Teachers might ask children to
reach for their favorite books from the classroom library. While activities such as these are
physically engaging, they are also helpful in developing independence in children.
