Learning to read can be very hard for some, especially when learning to read happens later in life or is in a new language. The strategies highlighted in this blog will help parents support their children as they learn to read. Sometimes students have trouble with the sounds and symbols, and sometimes students have trouble with understanding what the story means. For phonics support you can visit my Phonics blog post.
This survey of home literacies is one way to evaluate the literacy support practices you provide for your children at home. Please note: As you review or take this survey you may notice that it approaches families as if they have deficits in the area of reading support in their homes. The truth is that the suggestions in this survey are activities that support ACADEMIC LITERACY practices in the schools. There are many literacy activities that take place in the home that are valid and should not be overlooked. While the recommendations in this survey will support your child's academic literacy growth, they are not superior to other forms of literacy.
Here you will find a professional article exploring the need to align home and school literacies within the academic setting.
