Vocabulary is essential for your child’s development. Watch the video for quick and easy ways to improve these skills at home:
Education experts recommend the learning of vocabulary through 17 repetitions to a word over timed intervals.
Get your child to find a picture online or draw the word and stick it into their book. They are much more likely to remember the meaning this way.
You can make it fun by creating a PowerPoint on the computer.
Make the new words to learn visible in the house and easy to access. You can buy magnetic letters for the fridge and have fun with it. These helped me in my childhood by coming up with new words and I loved it.
Remember, your child picks up vocabulary from books and the people they interact with. Use great vocabulary in your everyday speech and hey presto – your child will too.
Everyone loves a challenge. You can turn vocabulary work from a chore to joy by adding targets to the tasks.
