 You are your child's first and most important literacy teacher. The good news is that you began your "instruction" at their birth. Each song you sang, each word you have taught, each question you have asked and answered, and each book you have read together have all given your child the tools necessary to begin learning to read. The National Institute for Literacy publishes several guides to assist parents in helping their child learn to read. Click on the links below or go to http://www.nifl.gov/ for more ideas. |
