In Montessori education, reading is a personalized, gradual process. The shift from reading individual words to full sentences is a significant milestone in a child’s literacy development, enhancing both their understanding of language and their confidence as readers.
The journey begins with mastering sounds, which form the foundation for reading. Once children are comfortable with sounds, they progress to reading words. The final step introduces sentences, helping children see how words combine to express complete ideas. To support this progression, activities like reading booklets with images help children connect words with their meanings in context.
By engaging in hands-on activities, children move seamlessly from sounds to words, and eventually to sentences. This process equips them with the skills needed to read independently, fostering a sense of accomplishment and a love for reading.
