[quote=Anonymous]We did “I read a page you read a page” at some point. But overall, no to forcing out loud. We read together (me to my kid) instead bc that’s very valuable for vocabulary, comprehension, communication, etc. Reading out loud is such an ES skill. Outside of my kids, I can go weeks without reading out loud in my life, so I don’t see that particular skill as critical. Mostly I see it as my job to make reading fun. That’s worth more than a bit more practice at phonics or whatever, especially for an ADHD kid where their motivation means the difference between that incredible hyper focus and the complete inability to focus.
