It is important that your child read and
reread just right books at their independent level each day. This will
help to increase accuracy, fluency, and comprehension as well as build
stamina. Magazines provide a good opportunity to expose your child to
multi-genres, as well as spark interest. It is imperative that your child
spend at least 40 uninterrupted minutes daily to read, read, read.
“If our goal is for children to grow as readers, the
one single thing they most need is time to read.” -Lucy Calkins
