Storytime: Nurturing Young Minds

Storytime plays a vital role in fostering brain development. Even before children can articulate words, exposure to language through storytelling supports their cognitive growth. When reading with children, the connection between spoken words, the illustrations on the page, and elements in their surroundings enhances the development of crucial brain connections.

What This Story Time Offers:
- Exposure to a diverse range of age-appropriate vocabulary.
- Understanding the components of a story (beginning, middle, & end).
- Learning about parts of speech, such as identifying adjectives/nouns in the narrative.
- Encouraging interactive language skills through discussion.
- Developing active listening and effective speaking abilities.
- Promoting healthy brain development.
- Most importantly, instilling a lifelong love for reading.

Post or during the story, we will delve into discussions about the characters, emotions, settings, objects, and events in the book. Children are encouraged to relate these elements to their own life experiences if they wish.

This storytime offers a delightful and soothing experience for your child. They can bring along a blanket, pillow, and their favorite cuddly stuffed animal to join me as we explore a Berenstain Bears Story Book. These cherished books were my favorites as a child, and I've passed that love on to my own children. Now, I'm excited to share that same love with your child. The Berenstain Bears' stories are heartwarming and often convey valuable life lessons.

Curious about these stories? Here's a brief overview:

The Berenstain Bears:
This beloved children's literature series, created by Stan and Jan Berenstain and continued by their son, Mike Berenstain, features a family of humanlike grizzly bears. Each story typically imparts a moral or safety-related lesson. The central characters include parents Mama and Papa, along with their three children: Brother, Sister, and Honey. The narrative often follows a pattern where Papa attempts to instruct Small Bear in the art of living, only to find himself in amusing predicaments, with Small Bear expressing gratitude for the valuable lesson learned.

Learning Goals

* Exposure to a rich variety of age-appropriate words.
* Learning the parts of a story (beginning, middle, & end)
* Learning parts of speech. (example: pointing out an adjective/noun within the story)
* An opportunity for back-and-forth (language/discussion) skills.  
* Developing listening and speaking skills
* Healthy Brain Development
* (Most Importantly) Gain a lifelong love of reading.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
👋🏼 Hello! I'm Carrie Wright, also known as Ms. Carrie.

I possess a deep passion for Early Childhood Education (ECE), dedicating over 17 years to working and studying in this field. ECE encompasses the education of children from birth to eight years old.

My Top Five Teacher Qualities: 
1️⃣ Patient
2️⃣ Reliable
3️⃣ Energized
4️⃣ Organized 
5️⃣ Creative

ECE is a critical phase in child development, and research indicates that children engaged in ECE programs tend to perform better academically. Beyond academic achievements, one of the most significant advantages of early childhood education is instilling a love for learning. These formative experiences inspire children to seek knowledge and cultivate a lifelong passion for learning.

An integral aspect of teaching involves understanding both the student and their family. Feel free to reach out with any questions, concerns, or ideas that can aid in your child's educational journey.

I am genuinely thankful for the opportunity to contribute to the growth of your student.

Looking forward to connecting soon,
Ms. Carrie
