Reading Strategies Booklet (PDF File)
Fun things to do while reading together:
-Search for words with your child’s “special letter” (the beginning letter of their name)
-Search for words with the letter(s) of the week
-Find small words inside bigger words (Ex: “an” in “began” or “be” in “because”)
-Find rhyming words
-Find words they recognize already
-Look at the pictures before reading to figure out what the story may be about
-Look at the pictures to give them clues
-Talk about what happened in the story
-Talk about what they liked/disliked about the story
-Talk about a possible new ending to the story (if relevant)
Happy Reading!
