How To Improve Your Child's Reading With One Simple Technique

1. Have a "read-out-loud" lesson every day
Take the time every day to have a reading lesson with your child where they will read, out loud, a passage from a favourite book or magazine.

When your child encounters an unknown word during your lesson, you can either tell them what this new word is, if they are new to reading, or if your child has already learned how to use phonics, get them to try and work it out for themselves.

2. Let your child auto-correct themselves
By hearing themselves read your child will begin to auto-correct him or her self which is the key to becoming a great reader.

If you allow your child to read silently (what a pleasure that would be) too soon, they will be inclined to skip over words or simply improvise any words that they do not know.

However, if you insist that your child reads out loud they will automatically have to stop and concentrate on the words that they do not know. By doing this they will not only learn new words they will learn the technique of auto-correction which is what we do as adults and which ensures that we are good readers.

So, by getting your child to read aloud whenever they are reading at home (they don't have to be quiet so as not to disturb the rest of their class), for as long as possible, their reading skill will increase dramatically.
