Tips for Parents:
Summer Reading Loss
You can help protect your child from summer reading loss by:
* Encouraging your child to read a variety of materials (for example: non-fiction, fiction, magazines, graphic novels)
* Asking your child questions about what they read
* Encouraging your child to write about what they read (journal, etc.)
* Discussing stories and articles you have both read
Before, During and After Questions
Part of the literacy process is learning to think as you read. You can assist your child by asking the following questions during the reading process:
* What do you think will happen next?
* Does this story remind you of something you have read before?
* What was your favorite part of the story?
* What do you visualize as you read?
* What other information would you like to learn about this topic?
Make Summer Reading Fun!
Summer reading is different from reading during the school year. It is generally less structured and more emphasis is placed on your child's interests.
