Literacy development in early children
Keywords:
Learning, literacy, ability, strategy, dyslexiaAbstract
Literacy, which encompasses the process of reading and writing, is essential for children's cognitive, academic and social development. Introducing these skills at an early age, generally between 0 and 6 years old, is decisive because it forms the basis for future learning. Through literacy, children develop their vocabulary, reading comprehension and communication skills, which also reinforces their critical thinking and creativity. The objective of the research is to determine the importance of the early development of literacy in the first years of life, the result was that literacy is part of the academic base for the following years of early childhood, boys and girls learn to expand their imagination and also lose stage fright when performing a socio-cultural or artistic presentation, highlighting at the same time their interest in reading and writing, improving throughout life.
