Steps On How To Teach Reading To Kids

By Annabelle Holman


The best way to introduce a child to the wealth of knowledge gained through the written language is to begin teaching them early in a warm and loving atmosphere. Below is a description about how to teach reading to kids and they are great for anyone who wish to help children learn how to read. When a child has an early education, they are able to develop a foundation to handle complex curriculum in higher institutions of learning.

Create a study plan that is suitable for your child. Usually, you will want to help your child through the study process and so the best time to create a study routine would be every night. You can have your son or daughter read a section of children books for some minutes. Take note of their progress each day. Ask them if they have a problem studying a section of the book you give them and then help them read that part.

The local library could be a great source where you can find better reading materials that can help our child learn how to read as well as becoming a regular reader. When you are at the library, take the child to the children book section and allow him or her to pick a book or books they would find interesting to read. If you are a registered member with the library, you can borrow these books and have your child use them for reading over the weekend.

Once you borrow books for your child from the local library, schedule the best time when the child can study on their own. The best time for a child to study on their own would be after an evening bath because kids tend to be more active during their free time. Take them to a quiet place where they can do their personal studies. Make sure the area is free from distraction and unnecessary noise.

Make the session interesting by taking it in turns. Search for a story from an easy to read children story book and read a page or two or a few paragraphs aloud. You should start the reading and have your child listen to you to set a suitable environment for the reading. Once you are done reading that set of paragraph from the book, have your child read the same text to you.

Always listen to your child read. Try the best you can to track the instances where they are finding it difficult to read. Remember that some words are difficult to read so your child may pause on them and look at you to signify they need your help. Make sure you teach them how to pronounce the words before they continue reading.

Help a child with sound patterns when they are studying. It is important to keep in mind that a child will not pronounce some words exactly the way they should because they are new to such words. Make sure you point out sound patterns in the book they are reading so that they read comfortably.

Have your child read comprehensions before going to sleep ad every morning before they go to school. Spending 20 minutes of your time before and after work to help your child read would be great. Have them read stories of their favorite from their favorite children book.
