Summary of Helping Kids Learn to Read

Hi, I'm Ann Kennedy on behalf of Expert Village and we'll be looking at correcting common problems in children. Summary; we've learned a great deal through these sessions and I believe that it would be very, very beneficial to you and your child. You'll learn to have fun, you'll have far more confidence every time you read to your child and you'll understand and hopefully practice that reading is everywhere. And you'll be able to find some of the common problems your child might be showing while they're reading. You can have fun with it. So, we looked at how we learned the importance that we have to have activities in our learning that hearing and sight and watching and modeling behavior is so, so important to teach a child to read. We learned that reading is everywhere, it's up in the clouds, it's a grocery store. There's opportunities at every instance to teach a child to read. We've taken it step by step to learn to see reading through a child's eyes. We've even looked at Egyptian hieroglyphics to see what they're seeing. Modeling, the importance of how you read, how you treat books, how you think and how you talk about books, it's never enough just to read a book. There's a beginning activity, the book itself and an ending activity. And hopefully a lot of smiles enjoy. It's also important of playing reading rhyming games. The reading rhyming games, they're not silly, they make all the difference in the world in pronunciation and enunciation, literation in high scoring achieving children as they get older. And, the importance of playing as I said and you've got to keep the child alive within yourself too and keep on playing. Common problems for young readers, we've looked at assessments and how we handle them and what we do with it. Most of all and the most important, important concept is to have fun while you're doing it.
