Helping students read better

Ok, you've picked a good fit book.  You've modeled good reading.  You make sure homework is complete.  You are reading.  Your kid is still having trouble reading.  Don't get discouraged!  Keep trying.  It might take longer and they might need more practice.  Here are some things you can do to help your student:

Keep reading!!!


Read aloud with them- this modeling can show them what it is supposed to sound like.


They need to find what works for them when it comes to concentration.  Don't be so quick to instill the silence.  Many kids do better when listening to music, especially music without words.  Experiment and see what happens.


Remind them to practice strategies that they learn in school.  Click here for more tips!
