Teaching Kids To Read
How do you teach a kid how to read?
I’m a parent of a 4 year old and a 1 year old. How do you teach them how to read?
It’s hard for me to be a teacher for my kids because I don’t have the patience but I’m trying. My daughter is in preschool and my son is at home with me all the time.
Thank you all so far! My daughter loves books…my son on the other hand isn’t even near being interested yet, he is to busy to sit and listen longer then a minute.
1. Make a whole lot of books available, books with fairly large pictures so the older one can at least make up a story to go with the picture, and figure out the words as she begins to read. The little one will most likely enjoy books with textures on them that he can touch and feel, and board books that he can’t destroy.
2. Read to them often so they learn to associate reading with spending enjoyable time with their parents.
3. Get them library cards, it is pretty exciting to have your very own library card when you are little, and there are always plenty of toys along with books to play with in the library
4. Let them see you reading, if they associate reading as something grown up and enjoyable they are more likely to enjoy it.
5. Get them hooked on a series, nothing better then having them constantly want the next book(Junie B. Jones can be read to the girl)
6. Be patient, they will learn on their own time, ultimately their isn’t a huge hurry, making sure reading is an enjoyable activity is far more important then making sure they can do it immediately at this point.
