Teach Your Child to Read

"Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons" is your textbook

Learning how to read is one of the most fundamental educational tasks children face, but school may not be the best place for that learning to take place -- whether because of distractions, an inhospitable environment, or newfangled techniques that don't serve the needs of kids with learning or language disabilities. Short one-on-one sessions using a phonics approach may do a much better job of helping your child convert those meaningless markings on a page into useful words, and that's exactly what Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons offers. The book provides you with almost everything you'll need to successfully teach your child, including scripts that tell you exactly what to say and worksheets for your child to fill out. You'll just need to provide:

• Twenty uninterrupted minutes every day for 100 days.
• A comfortable place to work, with a surface for your child to write on.
• A pencil that's comfortable for your child to hold.
• Stickers and other small goodies to provide incentive and rewards.

Set this daily 20 minutes aside as your special reading learning time, but don't make it the only time you read all day; read to your child at other times to keep the learning going and make books an appealing goal to reach for.
