National Comic Book Day!

Thursday September 25 is National Comic Book Day! Here’s some fun facts about you might not know about comic books and their influence on Early Literacy.

• Comic books help stimulate the brain when reading, thus helping kids focus on what is happening in the text.
• Although children may recognize letters and know what sounds they make, comic books increase children’s ability to inference which can lead to increased comprehension scores in grade schools.
• Reading comic books can help children’s minds focus by following the pictures and text boxes in sequential order.

Well that’s all for now, we are off, off, and away!
