Dear Families,
Reading is one of the most important life skills. You can help your child become an enthusiastic and fluent reader by providing experiences that will lead to success. We hope you will try some of these ideas:
· Create a ritual in your home where all family members stop everything and read.
· Keep a variety of books available so your child can choose a book and feel a sense of power over his or her reading.
· Read different kinds of books--picture books, mysteries, fables, biographies, non-fiction, etc.
· Try reading poems, songs, rhymes and even riddles.
· Read to get information such as game directions, toy instructions and recipes.
· If possible, make frequent trips to the public library.
Best,
Ms. Naughton, Ms. Ducharme and Mrs. Winston
