Teaching Tip: Model Good Reading
This week for our Teaching Tip Tuesday, we are discussing the importance of modeling good reading to your child. As parents and teachers we are always telling kids that they should read, but if they don’t see US doing it, why would they be inspired to do so?
Teaching Tip: Take Educational Trips!
Summer is such an important time for kids and families, and it is the perfect opportunity to do some fun learning. Children who do not read during the summer months or have exposure to books experience the “summer slide” where their reading levels will dip. This does not mean that summertime reading needs to be work or boring! Summer reading can give children the chance to see how wonderful reading and learning can be.
