Simple Strategies for Creating Strong Readers

Through reading aloud, providing print materials, and promoting positive attitudes about reading and writ-ing, you can have a powerful impact on children’s literacy and learning. Below are a few strategies to use as you help your child develop into a good reader and writer.

Invite a child to read with you every day.

When reading a book where the print is large, point word by word as you read. This will help the child learn that reading goes from left to right and understand that the word he or she says is the word he or she sees.

Read a child's favorite book over and over again.

Read many stories with rhyming words and lines that repeat. Invite the child to join in on these parts. Point, word by word, as he or she reads along with you.

Discuss new words. For example, "This big house is called a palace. Who do you think lives in a pal-ace?”

Stop and ask about the pictures and about what is happening in the story.

Read from a variety of children's books, including fairy tales, song books, poems, and information books.

Estrategias Simples para Creando Lectores Fuertes

Al leer en voz alta, proporcionar materiales impre-sos y promover actitudes positivas sobre la lectura y la escritura, puede tener un impacto poderoso en la alfabetización y el aprendizaje de los niños. A continuación, se incluyen algunas estrategias que puede usar para ayudar a su hijo a convertirse en un buen lector y escritor.

Invite a su hijo a leer con usted todos los días.

Al leer un libro donde la impresión es grande, señale palabra por palabra a medida que lee. Esto ayudará al niño a aprender que la lectura va de izquierda a derecha y a comprender que la pala-bra que él o ella dice es la palabra que ve.

Lea el libro favorito de un niño una y otra vez.

Lee muchas historias con palabras que riman y líneas que se repiten. Invite al niño a unirse a estas partes. Punto por palabra, como él o ella lee junto con usted.

Discutir nuevas palabras. Por ejemplo, "Esta casa grande se llama palacio. ¿Quién crees que vive en un palacio?"

Deténgase y pregunte sobre las imágenes y sobre lo que está sucediendo en la historia.

Lea una variedad de libros para niños, incluidos cuentos de hadas, libros de canciones, poemas y libros de información.
