What is Story November? The Power of Reading!
Story November is a one-month campaign by LCentral to promote the importance of reading for lifelong learning and to spread the joy of reading.
Reading Empowers Lifelong Learning.
Reading is an integral part of early literacy development. It is one of the many important ways in which children learn new things. Children who learn to read at an early age have greater general knowledge and a wider vocabulary and become fluent readers. Reading is important for children to become lifelong learners.
However, did you know that reading does not come naturally? It is an acquired skill. Developing reading skills while instilling a love of reading at an early age is the key to unlocking the door to lifelong learning.
Experience the joy of reading with LCentral.
“A person who won’t read has no advantage over one who can’t read.” – Mark Twain
Many parents come to us and say, “I want my child to learn to read”. We politely tell them no. We disagree. That’s the wrong goal. Because for us, that’s not enough.
As the Premier English Specialist, we often come across well-meaning parents who, in their efforts to help their children overcome obstacles in acquiring reading skills, lose sight of the importance of instilling the joy of reading. Reading empowers lifelong learning, yet the joy of reading is what’s important to get children to keep reading.
At LCentral, we have developed a scaffolded and systematic curriculum for children to acquire fundamental reading skills. This mainly focuses on the essential components of reading (e.g. phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary and reading comprehension). Our greater ambition, though, is to instil the love of reading and develop the skills to read, giving children a head start on expanding their vocabulary and building independence and self-confidence, ensuring a positive formative experience.
Through our Story November 2022 Campaign, we want to inspire your child to read and motivate them to read on their own. Reading is not just about reading off a text or making sense of sounds. We want your child to experience the true joy of reading and the power of literacy to keep them curious and to create a genuine desire to learn.
Focusing on learning to read is short-sighted. The goal is children who DO read!
The unlimited, life-defining benefits of reading only happen to those who take advantage of this wondrous privilege.
