FAQs | Read 2 Grow Early Learning Child Care

1 What are the benefits of teaching literacy early?

ANSWER

An early introduction to literacy has long been associated with cognitive and emotional development, enhanced oral skills, and long-term academic and occupational success. The program we use, Jolly Phonics, is used as the basis for teaching literacy and music in more than 100 countries across 5 continents. Some have even adopted the program as government policy. The Jolly Phonics multi-sensory approach is widely considered one of the most effective way to teach children how to read and write in English.
