[quote=Anonymous]My 8 year old is an ok reader but he really lost interest in it this summer. I was getting worried about it and then his teacher this year gave them a worksheet with apples to color in for every 20 minutes he reads. I'm not a fan of tracking reading (I think it should just be something to enjoy, not monitor) but it really motivated him. The teacher gives little toys when the paper is turned in -- and then they get a new paper. You could do a similar thing. Keep it on the fridge so he can color in each time he reads 20 min. [/quote]
