Using felt storyboards and felt pieces encourages the
enjoyment of language – felt stories provide a more intriguing vehicle for
sharing a rhyme or short story. They can help toddlers who show no interest in
books to get some enjoyment out of storytime. Flannel boards aid in the
teaching of visual literacy – learning to look and construct meaning from
objects. Children use personal connections to enable the decoding of visual
representations of their experiences. They will recognize a picture of a cat,
drawn by different illustrators as a “symbol” for a cat, and know that it is not
a cat, but represents one.
