Teach your child to comprehend at the same time as they learn to read. “Home Reading”As a mom those two little words are enough to make me shudder. As a mom with many kids, they make me want to cry. As a parent you grin and get through it. You read. You correct the words with kindness and patience. And you smile supportively when you hear “L-i-t-t-l-e, I don’t know.... balloon?” hundreds of times. You get through it. Or so you think. Then, grade three smashes through your routine. All of a sudden the kids need to be “comprehending” what they are reading. It’s not about learning “how to read” anymore it’s all about “reading to learn.” And you ask yourself – isn’t this something that could have happened at the SAME TIME as learning to read? The short answer is yes. Yes it can happen at the same time (and it should be happening at the same time). This guide will help you help your child learn these skills TOGETHER – meaning you spend less time reading about people and their pets sitting in strange places, and more time doing things you actually love with your family (without feeling guilty for sacrificing their academic future!) If your child is already reading chapter books, great! Encourage them to fill out a page after each chapter. Possibly the best thing about this resource is, after a while, your kids will be thinking of the questions as they read. You teach them once, they continue to use the skill as they learn and grow. This book has both reading/writing prompts as well as drawing prompts. Some children do both, others only engage with one. You know your child best. Enjoy!
