Readers Improve

When Given Choice  

By matching children with the books they love we allow them to practice reading and feel motivated to read.

What if the book my child likes seems too difficult?

• Reading the book together and taking turns. 
• Allowing the child to still read the book, but also to read good fit books as well.
• Asking Mrs. Roy or the child's classroom teacher to help suggest books that are similar but may be a better fit.
• Don't forget to read to your child (yes, even older ones) you boost their comprehension and vocabulary!

What if the books my child likes seem too easy?

• Rereading books is a great skill builder.  Students build stamina and fluency as they reread
• Students still build skills when they read books they can move through quickly
