THE INFLUENCE OF READING ON CHILDREN'S NARRATIVE WRITING
Abstract
This article examines the influence of reading on the development of children’s narrative writing skills. It highlights the role of reading as a fundamental factor in enriching vocabulary, improving grammatical accuracy, and strengthening imagination in young learners. Regular exposure to stories helps children understand narrative structure, including plot development, character creation, and sequencing of events. The study also emphasizes how reading habits enhance children’s critical and creative thinking, enabling them to produce more coherent and expressive written texts. Furthermore, the article discusses effective pedagogical strategies that integrate reading activities into writing instruction, promoting higher academic achievement and fostering a deeper interest in literacy among children.
