[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with the YOU read out loud to her a lot. You can worry about her reading to you over the summer to keep her decoding up to par, but I would be getting captivating chapter books out and reading them to loud to her every night. Beverly Cleary, Harry Potter, Stuart Little, The Little Princess/Secret Garden are older books with a great vocabulary set that should challenge her while she listens. [/quote] Some of those books are really boring to a lot of kids. I have two who don’t like reading. It’s important to find books that they enjoy and not random well known books. One of mine loves comedy so I looked for funny books. The other one liked the arts so I got those type of books. She doesn’t need to be challenged. She needs to feel more comfortable reading.
