Reading
When a children read daily, it leads to reading and writing success in school. They develop their fluency, deeper understanding of text, and hopefully a love of reading. Following are some questions you can ask your child during or after their reading at home:
Thick-(longer response time, may need to reread parts of text)
-What if...?
-Why did...?
-What caused...?
-How would you feel if you...?
-Why do you think....?
-How did...?
-What would happen if...?
-What might...?
-What character traits describe...?
-Why is...? ​
Thin- (quicker response time)
-When?
-Where?
-Who?
-How Many?
Try This:
-Trying choral reading with your child. Hearing you read will help them with pacing and expression.
-After reading a story ask your son/daughter to act out what they just read! Getting them up and moving helps them understand what they are reading!
