Word association reading is an engaging and valuable tool for children aged 7 to 8, and both parents and teachers should prioritize it for several reasons. At this developmental stage, children are honing their reading skills and expanding their vocabulary. Word association activities help to reinforce this expansion by connecting new words to familiar concepts and terms they already know.

This method not only boosts vocabulary but also enhances comprehension, as children learn to make connections between words, fostering deeper understanding. When students can see relationships between words, they are more likely to remember them, which improves overall reading fluency.

Additionally, word association reading encourages critical thinking and cognitive development. As children explore how words relate, they develop skills to analyze language structure and meanings, laying a strong foundation for future learning.

Moreover, this learning strategy is fun and interactive, making reading a more enjoyable experience. When children engage in playful word games or group activities, they are motivated to continue learning, leading to a positive attitude toward literacy.

Ultimately, by emphasizing word association reading, parents and teachers can support children's cognitive growth, foster enthusiasm for reading, and prepare them for more advanced literacy skills in the future.
