For the Love of Literacy <3

Literacy 

Welcome to my podcast! I started this show in an effort to educate the public about the importance of literacy, especially when we have kids to look out for! I reference my time as an elementary schoolteacher & tutor + my current experience as a children's author & mama of 2 littles to address the biggest literacy issues facing us today.

  • Influencer Instagram Accounts & Blogs to Follow:
    • @hopscotchhomeschool (My friend Michelle is the one with the great suggestions for incorporating audiobooks at quiet time.)
    • @everydayreading (Janssen has done some helpful research about the benefits of audiobooks & all of her girls enjoy listening to them as well; Janssen often shares great audiobook deals on her Instagram stories.)

The most important benefits with audiobooks are:
1) Sharpening listening skills
2) Connecting text-to-text or making connections with characters in the stories
3) Hearing grammatically correct language
4) Scaffolds higher level vocabulary
5) Teaching expression, inflection, & dialogue (since most audiobooks are read by professional actors or narrators)
6) Provides ideas for conversation topics
7) Reinforces comprehension (especially for kids who struggle to see read or understand the printed word)
8) Improving the reading rate of children (as their ability to recognize, comprehend & pronounce words improves, children can read faster.)
9) Foster confidence in young readers & academic success
10) Removes printed word/ text decoding anxiety
