Family Reading Tips

Here are some easy, powerful ways to support your child with their reading!

Ask Questions About the Book

  • Start conversations by asking open-ended questions rather than questions that have yes or no answers.
    • Ask, “How would you feel if you were the main character in this situation, and why?”
    • Take turns sharing your thoughts and ideas, too.

Build Skills at Home

  • Make books easy to reach and reread at home. Rereading books:
    • helps children to understand a book more deeply
    • increases vocabulary, and
    • adds comfort and ease to reading.

Encourage and Connect

  • When children can see themselves in a story, they connect more deeply to it.
    • Look for positive qualities (like bravery and teamwork) while reading or discussing books with your child.
    • Remind them of times where they—or you—showed the same qualities.

Reading Milestones

  • If you want more information on how to support your child as a reader, reach out to their teacher. You can ask:
    • Is my child reading on grade level?
    • What books would be a good fit for my child?
    • Is there anything specific we should be working on at home?
