LAYERED LEARNING TOOLS
LAYERED LEARNING makes a significant difference in a child’s development and education. It also connects adults (parents, siblings, other family members and teachers) to children by combining reading with various levels of interactivity. Layered Learning greatly benefits busy parents/adults and active children because it allows parents and other readers to pick and choose the tools to use when reading and interacting with a child on any given day or night to get the most out of a busy family’s limited time. These flexible tools combine learning and play while enabling parents/adults to continually build upon a child’s learning progress in a way that works for both of them while deepening their bond.
Reading books (or anything readable for that matter) is a key to a child’s development and learning. Early reading coupled with adult guided play enriches child growth by developing critical, cognitive, emotional, social and physical skills.* So, reading together with a child, especially on a regular basis, combined with play strengthens the bond between the reader and the child, giving the child a sense of intimacy, love and well-being while enriching the child’s learning skills, education and love of reading.** Reading with a child sets the stage for success in school and life in general by building a child’s thinking abilities, fostering his or her understanding of people, relationships and situations and cultivating listening and life management skills.
