If in the case of adults, reading already has numerous benefits, in children, the benefits of reading books are even greater.<\/p>\n

Daily reading helps children develop language, communication, and vocabulary skills<\/strong>, enabling them to communicate better with others and improve their writing skills. It also fosters their imagination and creativity<\/strong> by introducing them to imaginary worlds and characters, allowing them to create their own mental images.<\/p>\n

Their social and emotional skills<\/strong> can also be developed through reading books every day. A study<\/a> published by David Kidd and Emanuele Castano claims that reading narrative fiction makes people develop greater empathy, social perception and emotional intelligence. This is because thanks to literature, we can let our imagination fly and put ourselves in the place of different characters.<\/p>\n

In general, daily reading is a very important activity for children, as it can help them develop a wide variety of skills and benefits that, in turn, can lead to success in life. The love of reading<\/strong> must be also encouraged at home.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Not only is it important for children to read, but it is also important to read with them (especially if they are young).<\/p>\n

Keep in mind that children learn by example. If they watch their parents read, they will want to do the same. Why not read together?<\/p>\n

Reading as a family strengthens the relationship between adults and children<\/strong>. It is an activity that allows quality time together and can be a time when the child feels safe and connected to the adult.<\/p>\n

Here is a list of books to read with children<\/a> that you may find useful. Classic children’s stories that your children will love if they don’t already know them, such as Lewis Carrol’s Alice in Wonderland or the Brothers Grimm’s Fairy Tales. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Reading is a fundamental activity in any school, and Casvi International American School is no exception. Reading is a central activity in students’ education and is promoted through reading programs, well-equipped libraries, and classroom book discussion activities.<\/p>\n

The school also fosters a love of reading through the Book Fair and other types of literary events, which helps students appreciate and enjoy reading as a fun and rewarding activity.<\/p>\n

Several times a year, book fairs<\/strong> are held at the school so that students and their families have the opportunity to purchase books in English at the school itself. At the last fair, the Espabooks<\/a> publishing house was invited and all students were encouraged to purchase new books to improve their reading skills or simply to discover new stories.<\/p>\n

Book Day<\/strong> is also celebrated with a variety of activities. One of the most famous traditions of the center is to bring together students from different grades (younger and older) for the older ones to read stories to the younger ones. The families of the youngest children are also invited to read to the children, different books or stories in different languages.<\/p>\n

For this special day, the pre-school and elementary students decorate the classroom doors for Book Day, read aloud, discuss different books, and practice writing and storytelling skills. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
