Parents and teachers should prioritize answering questions during reading fiction for children aged 5-6 for several reasons. Firstly, this age group is characterized by an innate curiosity and a developing ability to think critically. When children ask questions about stories, it signals engagement and a desire to understand various themes, characters, and plots. By addressing these inquiries, caregivers can nurture a love for reading while encouraging deeper comprehension and analytical skills.

Furthermore, interactive reading fosters language skills. When parents or teachers respond to questions, they are modeling effective communication, expanding vocabulary, and reinforcing language development. As children articulate their thoughts and feelings, they enhance their expressive abilities and emotional intelligence.

Additionally, answering questions promotes bonding. It creates an inviting environment where children feel valued and heard, supporting their social-emotional growth. Finally, exploring fiction together provides opportunities for moral discussions and instilling values, helping children to relate stories to their own lives.

In essence, addressing questions during fictional reading not only fosters academic growth, but also nurtures emotional and social skills, making it a vital practice for parents and teachers. This engagement lays the groundwork for lifelong learning and a profound appreciation for literature.
