I Read to You
When you read:
Find a special time and place to read to your child. Pick the best time for both of you to read together for 20 minutes each day.
Find a story that you and your child will love to read. Keep your child interested in the story by reading it with emotion.
Read the whole story first if it is a picture book. If you are reading a chapter book, decide how many chapters you will read each day.
When you begin to read a new story, look at the cover, read the title of the story, and show your child where the author's name is located.
Do a brief picture-walk through the story looking quickly at each of the pictures in the book.
Ask your child, "What do you think this story is going to be about?"
Use your pointer finger to walk through the words as your read along.
Keep the read-together a fun experience for the whole family. You will know when your child gets tired and you need to take over.
You read part of the page first; then have your child read the same part with you again.
You read the sentence first, and then have your child read that same sentence after you. Point to the words as they read.
