, Question 1
1.1a Justify why reading is regarded as essential for children’s social and
cognitive development.
Reading is a crucial tool for both social and cognitive development in children, as it
fosters the growth of essential life skills. From a social perspective, reading introduces
children to different characters, cultures, and life situations, which helps them learn
empathy and social awareness. As they engage with stories about characters from
various backgrounds, they gain insights into different ways of living and thinking. This
helps children understand that others might have different perspectives, encouraging
them to become more tolerant and compassionate individuals.
Reading also plays a pivotal role in social bonding. Shared reading sessions with
parents, teachers, or peers promote interaction, discussion, and collaborative learning.
These moments allow children to ask questions, share their thoughts, and engage in
conversations about the material. This process helps children develop communication
skills, build relationships, and foster a sense of belonging.
On the cognitive side, reading stimulates brain development by challenging children to
understand and interpret language. As children encounter new words and ideas, they
expand their vocabulary and improve their language comprehension skills. The process
of reading also enhances critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. For example,
when children read a story, they often predict outcomes, infer meanings, and analyze
characters' actions, all of which strengthen their cognitive capabilities.
Additionally, reading helps develop concentration and focus. The act of following a
narrative requires sustained attention, which trains children to concentrate for extended
periods. This skill is invaluable not only for academic success but also for everyday
tasks that require focus.
1.1b Demonstrate your understanding of why reading and writing are regarded as
inseparable components of literacy development.
