[quote=Anonymous]You really have to do the work at home. They don't learn to read at school because they spend all their time at stations goofing around. Does your school send home books weekly? It's really crucial to work through those every day. It's the repetition that results in reading. With my DD, the first two days of reading any book were VERY VERY TOUGH. She would struggle and want to quit. But then on Wed, it was easier, Thurs was easier, and Friday she was reading it. Then we'd start all over with the difficulty the next week with new books. I had no idea we were supposed to be doing this with her in kindergarten. So when I realized she was behind in fall of first grade, I started working with her. She went from a DRA 4 to an 18. In 2nd grade she got 99th percentile on COGAT verbal. You just have to put the time in and repeat, repeat, repeat with the same book.[/quote]
