Reading is a fun activity for the whole family, but what should you do when your child struggles with words—or worse, if they declare they don’t like reading? We talked with Dr. Rebecca Silverman, professor at Stanford University, to learn how we can raise lifelong readers. She offered strategies for fostering a love of reading and guidance on what you should expect from your child at each age.
Resources:
- Visit two of Dr. Silverman’s favorite reading websites: Colorín Colorado and Reading Rockets
- Families of children with special needs can explore Understood.org for helpful articles and resources
- Check out this special PTA portal via Reading is Fundamental for discounted books just for PTA families
