What can I do at home to help?

Nightly reading: Read every night with your child. Here are some ways to mix it up a bit:

Choral reading :  Reading the same words at the same pace as your child.  Your child should be pointing to the words as you both are reading.

Echo reading :  You read a sentence, stop, and have your child repeat what you read with the same expression, and pointing to each word.

Take Turns :  You read a sentence, and your child reads the next sentence.

Silent Reading :  Encourage your child to read silently for 5 minutes.  At the end of 5 minutes, sit down and reread the material together.  Ask him/her which words they missed when they read it alone.
