Read at the Right Level
The Five Finger Test
When your child finds a book, flip to a page in the middle of the book. (One with the same amount of text as the other pages.)
Ask your child to read the page — out loud so you can help.
Hold up a finger each time your child misses a word.
No fingers means that the book is an independent level — it’s easy for your child to read and perfectly fine for part of their reading diet. One to five fingers means the book is at an instructional level — just right to grow as a reader. Six or more fingers means the book is at a challenge or frustration level and not recommended because the child won’t be able to comprehend the text.
Read! Read! Read! Read Again!
Rereading favorite books is not just enjoyable for children, but helpful, too. Children learn through repetition.
