[quote=Anonymous]Another teacher, here... You might also want to consider stopping into a teacher supply store like ABC's & 1-2-3's in Rockville. I know they have early readers that will make your child feel successful, plus practice workbooks for reading comprehension. If your child says that the letters or words "jump around", you might try a reading guide -- it's a little bookmark-shaped tool that has a highlighted strip down the center. Basically, it highlights individual words or one sentence at a time, so the child keeps focused on smaller bits while reading. Another thought ... if your child has a particular hobby or collection that excites them, suggest going to the library or looking up info online. If you want to be an expert on something, you need to research and read up on it! You could do this together and keep a journal on the new material learned (get some writing in there, too.) Good luck![/quote]
