Reading with Your Child
(Adapted from Johnson and Keier's "Catching Readers Before They Fail")
When you think you're done, you've just begun! Get the conversation started.
- After enjoying a book with your child, whether your child reads to you or you read to your child, continue the experience by asking:
- What did you notice about the story?
- Does this book remind you of anything?
- What have you been wondering as you read?
- Does this book make you think of anything else you['ve read?
- What was your favorite part?
- Were there any parts that surprised you?
- What are you going to read next?
