[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a 3rd grade teacher. I am also a parent of 4. All of my children are strong readers and writers. All of my children do not enjoy reading and will not read for fun. All of my children get unlimited amount of screen time. I honestly do not know what I contribute it to. I did not read to them every night. We have never gone to the library. They (2 of my kids) spend k and 1st grade through virtual learning. I could not assist as I was teaching my own class. The science of reading was not popular at that time in the curriculum. Again, what did I or the teachers do that others did not do to make strong readers? [b]Are kids just born this way?[/b][/quote] I think to some extent. If you never read to them or encourage reading most kids are unlikely to pick it up on their own. But even if you do read to them, take them to the library, etc. some kids will still never love reading. I have a kid who does love reading and a kid who doesn’t. [/quote]
