Writing — a different but parallel process — can open the door to reading, and an effective writing approach in the home and early childhood classrooms leads to the development of phonemic awareness, understanding of phonetic principles, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension.
Effective early childhood teachers are those that extend the knowledge children have amassed at home and use the knowledge of how children learn naturally in the world to inform their practice.

I began my career as a first-grade teacher in Virginia in the s. I remember one first grader who cried as the first day of school was ending.
