As we discussed in the last post, a crucial step in helping your child build confidence in their reading skills is having them write out words as well as read them. I think we can all agree that everyone learns differently. Some of us learn best by hearing, others by reading, and some by doing. When your child is just learning to read it isn’t easy to know which style of learning is going to work best for them. Therefore, do a little bit of everything! Read the books, write the focus words, and build the focus words with a movable alphabet. Through one or more of these methods your child’s ‘light bulb moments’ will start happening with more frequency and before you know it they’ll be begging you for more reading time!
When in doubt, write it out!
What kind of learner are you? Your learning style may be different than your child's so be willing to explore;) Have teaching/learning experiences to share? Please post below!
