Parents and teachers should prioritize contextual understanding in reading comprehension for ages 6-7 because it lays the foundation for deeper learning and critical thinking. At this age, children are not just learning to read; they are beginning to read to learn. Contextual understanding involves using information from the surrounding text and prior knowledge to infer meaning and make connections. This skill enhances comprehension, as children learn to navigate the nuances of language and grasp main ideas.

Developing contextual understanding helps children become more engaged readers. When they can relate the text to their own experiences or larger concepts, they find reading more enjoyable and significant. Furthermore, this ability promotes social-emotional development; children begin to recognize diverse perspectives and cultivate empathy as they explore characters and situations within stories.

Moreover, fostering contextual understanding prepares children for advanced literacy skills necessary for future academic success. It encourages curiosity and a love of learning—key traits that can influence educational resilience. Parents and teachers play a crucial role by modeling and encouraging these skills through discussions, questioning strategies, and interactive reading sessions, ultimately guiding children toward becoming thoughtful, critical readers.
