Parents are more concerned
about reading than any other subject in school. Therefore, parents
can and should play a key role in their child's reading
development.
In order for
kids to achieve in other subjects, reading skills must be
developed. Children should not have to struggle with word
recognition when they should be reading quickly for meaning
and fluency.
One of a child's earliest and most important
learning experiences ~ being read to ~ takes place at home. Parents
are
a child's first teacher. The home becomes an environment where young
minds can grow to their fullest potential, and where parents can play active
roles in their children's intellectual development.

play in helping your child learn. Remember when the home and the
school work together the only outcome is success!!
