Reading


Learning to read takes practice. Loving to read takes enthusiasm. So read with your child often and create a sense of enjoyment, wonder, and even a passion for reading.  Read with your child every day possible. Give children something to look forward to by reading to them every day at the same time.  Have your child read out loud to you. Listen carefully and make sure to praise your child’s reading.  Take turns reading — You read a section, then have your child read the next section.  Even after children can read on their own, keep reading to them so they can enjoy stories and books that interest them but are too hard for them to read by themselves.
