Students will analyze experiences, ideas, information and issues using a variety of established criteria. One of the most important skills your child will ever have is the ability to read. The stories we read and hear will open the doors to great ideas, unlimited information, and rich full lives. Yes, reading is taught in school, but studies show that families are an essential part of this learning process and enhance the work in the classroom. In other words, by reading with your child at home, you can make a great difference.
Story time can be a time for parents and children to read and listen to stories together.
Here are some activities that you can try at home to enrich your precious reading time together. As you share a story, pause occasionally to ask questions. Encourage your child to predict what will happen next. At the end of the story, see how many details each of you can recall. These activities may help your child better understand the story and the reading process.
