• BEST WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR CHILD'S READING FLUENCY

3

• Like most parents, youre probably want to make
  sure your child becomes a fluent reader, as this
  vital skill is the building block for so much of
  his education.

4

• By surrounding your child with reading
  opportunities of all sorts as well as letting him
  see you enjoy spending time reading, you can
  certainly set him off in the right direction.

5

• However, not all kids learn at the same pace, and
  some have specific problems that can be addressed
  with the right help and encouragement.

6

• Here are some pointers on how to encourage a love
  of reading and how to address any potential
  stumbling blocks.

7

• LETS GO TO
• THE LIBRARY

8

• Public libraries are an amazing resource for
  parents who want to instill a love of literature
  in their children.

9

• The more kids read, the better their skills, and
  libraries offer loads of book-based programs for
  children from babies to teens.

10

• Sign your preschooler up for a fun-filled story
  hour combining reading and crafts, be sure your
  school-age child keeps up skills

11

• by participating in a summer reading program,
  and get your teen involved in special library
  activities for older kids.

12

• Of course, the library is always a great place to
  find the best books!

13

• BOOKS OF THEIR OWN

14

• Kids reading scores have been found to be higher
  among youngsters who are growing up in a home
  surrounded by reading material.

15

• Make sure there are plenty of books and magazines
  at your childs level around the house from cool
  bug books to fantastical novels and colorful
  kids magazines.

16

• Every room in the house can be a place to dive
  into a book. Youngsters can relax on the couch
  with a favorite mystery

17

• read recipes while helping with dinner in the
  kitchen or snuggle up in bed at the end of the
  day with a beloved novel.

18

• READING, READING EVERYWHERE

19

• Children can practice reading anywhere, anytime,
  not just when theyre engrossed in a novel.

20

• Find fun ways to help your child improve skills.

21

• Let him read

Roadside signs
Weather reports
Game directions
Food labels
Billboards
Restaurant Menu
22

• Good old-fashioned board games are a super and
  fun way to boost reading skills and have quality
  time with family.

23

• Reading is so much a part of everyday life that
  you dont have to wait until your child is
  sitting down with a book to help her with reading
  skills.

24

• MAKE FAMILY READING TIME A TRADITION

25

• Once kids are older and can read on their own
  schedule family reading time into the evenings
  activities.

26

• Just 15 to 30 minutes of everyone in the family
  reading silently lets kids see you enjoy reading

27

• and also gets them in the habit of finding some
  time each day to escape into a book.

28

• KEEP UP TO DATE

29

• Be pro-active in tracking your youngsters
  reading progress. Find out from the school what
  the expectations are for each grade level

30

• and then track your childs basic reading
  skills on report cards and standardized test
  results.

31

• Due to the size of todays classes and the
  increased demands on instructors, your childs
  teacher may not notice a problem

32

• until its become serious so sit with your
  child and make sure she can sound out words, has
  good comprehension

33

• knows sight words and can use the context of a
  sentence to figure out the meaning of unknown
  words.

34

• HIRE A TUTOR

35

• For kids who are really struggling, the best
  option may be hiring a tutor, and the sooner your
  child

36

• gets the help she needs, the more likely shell
  be to develop into a good and confident reader.

37

• Teachers dont always have the time to give kids
  necessary individualized help, while a tutor can
  work one-on-one with your child or a small group
  of kids.

38

• Many schools or after-school programs have
  certified teachers and reading specialists
  available to help your young reader

  gaining confidence and hopefully becoming an
  enthusiastic reader.
