Verbal-Linguistic Intelligence not only benefits communication, it is also of great importance in expressing one's thoughts, wishes and opinions. Even if we do not expect our child to be a superior speaker, being savvy with words and having strong communication skills is the decisive ability which allows them to communicate with each other in their social and educational lives. The importance of having strong verbal linguistic ability is very clear: One can not expect to be able to interact or convey thoughts without the use of words. And the more words one knows, the better they are able to articulate. Surely we've all been fascinated by someone who amazes with stellar vocal skills and as such, been bored by weak speakers with their delivery of the material. Our society clearly emphasizes the importance of how well a person speaks, and a person with weak linguistic-verbal skills will lose.

Improving Reading Ability

Reading involves learning how to be able to understand and use language in it's written form. Speaking is often a natural learning process, while reading requires a certain level of effort and learning. This is because written language is artificial, and it involves learning how to decompose letters into words and into the language that it represents. The main objective when studying how to decode the written languages is in understanding and using the basic relationship between each letter and the sounds of the language they represent. Children must learn to understand and use language, especially spoken and written, in order to succeed in the modern world. This will eventually open the door to mastering subjects like science, mathematics, and history. Now, with more knowledge of our civilization easily accessible from the internet, the importance of reading and writing is even more necessary if one wants to understand and use this information. A person with good verbal skills will find it easier to learn the letters sounds of written words, especially in languages like English, which are phonetic. In turn, this will help improve writing skills.

Improving Writing Skills

Reading and writing skills may be developed extensively, but most often they go hand in hand. We have understood that reading is the study of the special sound codes represented by words and that learning the pattern of the letters allows a child who faces a written text page to decipher those symbols in front of him. Part of it is learning basic writing skills, which allows the child to change the sounds of the spoken language through the letters to form words. Reading and writing skills are both basic skills in communication, even when the person who is communicating with them cannot be seen or heard. Written words are the basis of books, reports, poems, speeches, stories, and letters. Developing writing skills will make it easier to organize thoughts and ideas that can then be poured on paper. Children skilled with writing can easily flow and use the information words represent in their minds.
