[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Go to the library, let them pick out a pile.  Read them.  [/quote]

+this is perfect, I did this with my kids all through ES and sometimes even now they're in HS. We browse the library, borrow and read books and the ones that they've really loved, we can buy a copy of them [/quote]

NP.  I get what you're saying, but not all kids learn to read through osmosis.  We have read to our kids nightly for at least 20 minutes since they were little but are now hiring a reading tutor for our 7yo because it's not enough.  Not saying OP's kid needs a tutor but maybe if I had worked with mine earlier I wouldn't be shelling out for one now.[/quote]

Agreed it is not enough for all kids but OP gave no indication that her child is struggling at this point.[/quote]

OP here- he’s on grade level (all Ps) but his friends are reading level 1 books and he can’t do that.  He can read the first set of Bob readers (the dark blue ones).[/quote]

Stop pushing before you turn them off reading.  They will read when ready.[/quote]
