Kinesthetic learners learn by doing, engaging with hands-on activities. Recognizing your child's learning style is key to supporting their reading journey.

Building Fluency and Comprehension

Fluency, the ability to read accurately and with expression, is essential for comprehension. Encourage your child to reread familiar books and practice reading aloud. Ask them questions about what they've read to check their understanding and encourage critical thinking. Reading comprehension strategies can further support their development here.

Collaboration Between Teachers and Parents

Open communication between teachers and parents is vital for a child's reading success. Regularly discuss your child's progress, share observations, and work together to create a consistent and supportive learning experience both at school and at home. This collaborative approach ensures that your child receives the individualized support they need to thrive as a reader.
