[quote=Anonymous]My first grader just graduated to E, so just barely ahead of yours. He still struggles and getting him to read can be a chore. One thing that’s been helping a lot is that our school works with a local group that has volunteers do tutoring in the school. So twice a week he has 30-40 minutes with a sweet, retired woman working on reading and phonics. He loves it-the kid who hates reading and struggles to sit still for regular zoom class is focused and calm the whole time with her. The one on one time from someone who isn’t a parent is making a huge difference. I don’t know if there’s any kind of local group you can tap into that might offer something similar. The other thing that’s helped is figuring out books he gets excited about and can mostly read. Elephant and Piggie was his gateway (even though they’re a higher reading level, there were lots of words he could read and we read them together with each of us doing a character.) [/quote]
