IDEAS FOR IMPROVING READING FLUENCY AND COMPREHENSION AT HOME:
1. Favorite Books- Read and reread favorite books with your child and have them read independently. This will develop reading confidence and fluency. This also offers a chance to practice reading expression.
2. Follow Along- Find an interesting book at your child's reading level. Read as your child follows along.
3. Books on Tape & CD- The newest way to read. Have the tape/CD play as your child follows along with the book. This will build fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension quickly. This is a great idea for trips in the car too!
4. Read Aloud Time- Have your child read anything to you or take turns reading back and forth.
5. Choral Reading- Read a short story, book, song or poem together. You can make beautiful music with words!
**Handwriting--Practice cursive writing in a journal. Write about all the wonderful sights, sounds and smells of summer time!-Record books you read over the summer in your journal.**Reading-
