 * __ Children Literacy and Teaching Technology __ **



=**Introduction :**=

  Children literacy is involved in daily life. Activities such as reading and writing words and books, watching movie, and listening to music, are part of children literacy. The most common activity requiring literacy is to read and write. Nowadays, picture books and fairy tales are common children’s literatures. There are other forms of literatures such as videos clips, movies, music, and TV shows.   In general, children’s literacy is defined as children’s ability to read and write. In order to help children to succeed in school and in society, teaching children to read and write is necessary for continuous learning.   "Children aged 2 to 3 who are read to several times a day do substantially better in kindergarten at the age of 4 and 5 than youngsters who are read to only a few times a week or less” (National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth, Statistics Canada, 1996-1997).Children’s literature is a great tool to assist young kids to be successful in future because reading books helps them to gain knowledge, improve reading and writing skills.
