At Home Reading Coaches.....

Here are some ideas that can help your child become a better reader:

• Be your child’s home reading coach!
• Turn off all technology!
• Make sure your child has a relaxed, comfortable place to read.
• Observe or listen to your child read.  
• Ask them a question or 2 each night.
• Sign your child’s log after he or she reads.  Each line is 15 minutes of reading.
• Help them get their book bag packed and ready to return to school.
• Stay in contact with your child’s teacher about his or her reading progress.
• Your child can read and count anything they choose to read, leveled or not.
• Keep it fun. Let them enjoy it!
