[quote=Anonymous]I would like to help my 2nd grader with her reading skills. I have the time to read together with my kid myself, but am not sure if a tutor or specialist does something more than just read with the kids? I'm trying to decide if it's worth something to look into. Grades are fine, teacher has just said to practice at home to work on her stamina. If she gets to a word she doesn't know, she will try to read it fast and make up letter sounds that are not even in the word. I have to stop her to break it down. Also, she sometimes skips words when reading like "and", "The" "can" "it" etc. Thoughts? [/quote]
