6 by 6: Six Skills by Six Years at Johnson County Library
Our Early Literacy skills help children learn "preliteracy" - the skills they'll use later when they beginning learning how to read. Before they can learn to read, they'll need to be able to recognize shapes, hear the smaller sounds in words that let us do things like rhyme, and of course, learn that books and stories are fun, so they'll want to read. Our Storytimes are built around developing the Six by Six skills in children, and also helping caregivers understand how they can nurture these skills at home. You can explore more about the Skills from the left hand menu.
