Dear Parents,

I am here to let you know about the importance of the literacy for your child
to have. I enjoy having four year old Max in my class. In my class we will begin to
read more books with the kids. I am going to give you some facts about literacy
and how it can be very important for your child. Early literacy is critical for young
children to be ready for the next steps in school. Strong reading skills form the
basis for learning in all subjects, it is important to identify those who struggle with
reading as early as possible. It can also help your child become more advanced in
school.
It would be greatly appreciated if you and your child can read at home too.
With this you can have some quality time with your child and reading four times a
week your child can be able to understand pretty much every letter in the alphabet
than other kids. Your child might not want to read from a book, but you can always
find a way to make it fun for them. You can now download e-books to read off of
your tablet. This can also get the kids attention more and make it amusing for your
child. I ask if you would please take this into consideration and be able to read to
your child more often at home as well.
Thank You,
Miss. Kim
