Understanding reading comprehension, normal vowels, and consonants is crucial for children aged 5-6, as this period is foundational for their literacy development. At this age, young minds are rapidly absorbing information, making it the perfect time to establish strong reading skills. The reason teachers and parents should care about these fundamentals is multi-faceted.

First, strong reading comprehension is essential for academic success across all subjects. If a child can read and understand instructions, stories, and content, their learning becomes more efficient and effective. Without this foundational skill, children may struggle with more advanced academic challenges in later years.

Normal vowels and consonants are the building blocks of language. When children clearly understand how these sounds function within words, it significantly bolsters their phonemic awareness. This awareness is key to developing decoding skills, enabling children to read new words independently. Mastery of vowels and consonants also improves their ability to spell, speak, and write accurately, which are critical communication skills.

Moreover, early proficiency in these areas can boost a child's confidence. When children feel competent in their reading abilities, it fosters a love for learning and exploration. Therefore, investing time and resources in reading comprehension, alongside teaching vowels and consonants, sets a strong educational foundation and instills a lifelong passion for reading.
