BEYOND WORDS: BUILDING CONFIDENCE IN CHILDREN THROUGH RECITATION

Abstract

The art of children's recitation has been developing rapidly in recent years. However, there is a noticeable decline in authenticity in this art form. This decline is due to a number of factors, including the increasing commercialization of recitation, the emphasis on winning competitions, and the lack of attention to the child's individual development. To preserve the true essence of children's recitation art, it is important to acknowledge and address this loss of authenticity. This can be done by focusing on the child's enjoyment of recitation, the development of their expressive skills, and the importance of authenticity in the selection of material.
