Supporting Gujarati Language Learning for Children

Encouraging your child to learn Gujarati involves various aspects. Let’s explore how you can support their reading, speaking, and writing skills:

1. Reading:

   • If your child struggles with reading, take it slow.
   • Break down each phonetic sound before saying the whole word.
   • Encourage them to re-read sentences or paragraphs until they feel confident.
   • For unfamiliar words, provide meanings or use online Gujarati dictionaries.

2. Speaking and Listening:

   • Encourage speaking Gujarati within the family.
   • Recommended videos can improve listening and speaking skills.
   • Even if some words are unfamiliar, encourage comprehension.

3. Writing:

   • Writing enhances understanding.
   • For Year 3:
     • Encourage writing in Gujarati.
     • If they struggle, start with GujEng (Gujarati-English) and then translate into Gujarati.

Remember, fostering a love for Gujarati involves patience, practice, and cultural immersion.
