contents Children of the Cloth: Flannelboards Are a Great Tool to Help Kids Learn Early Literacy Skills Arnold, Renea Colburn, Nell Emergent Literacy Beginning Reading Reading Instruction Teaching Methods Story Telling Story Grammar Picture Books Childrens Literature Young Children Flannelboards have been a storytime staple for years in school and public libraries. The flannelboard, or feltboard as it often is called, is a great tool to help children build early literacy skills. Reading research tells us that reading aloud is most effective when it is an interactive experience between the reader and the child. Flannelboard storytelling invites participation as young listeners try to guess what will appear from behind the board or call out the name of the animal, letter, or object being put on the board. Flannelboard storytelling emphasizes sequencing, as pieces of the story are put up one by one in a prescribed order. The importance of sequencing becomes apparent to children as they hold individual felt pieces and listen carefully for the appropriate cue that tells them it's time for their piece to go on the board.
