Help with Reading in Ten Simple Steps

This website will show you an easy, fast way to learn how reading works and to help with reading. You can learn how to teach reading and phonics to adult reading levels. A unique eBook will give your pupil a way to learn how to read any word. Practice Reading and Speaking allows you to help a child or adult learn to read. It also assists greatly with remedial teaching. It allows you to discover which spellings of sounds the pupil is unaware of and help with reading in a simple way. Teach the facts and help with reading easily, quickly and systematically.

Help with reading can come from a variety of different sources. It begins when parents communicate with their children. They answer their child’s questions about text. For example “What does that say?” A child may ask for help with reading words in favourite stories or help with reading road signs or the words on cereal boxes. If parents make use of every opportunity to help with reading before a child starts school, their child could be reading before they ever pass the job over to teachers. Help with reading given by parents, family or friends on a regular basis can assist a child enormously. Never underestimate the value of the help with reading that books can give, especially if they are slightly too difficult. A parent who is willing to learn how reading and phonics works and is willing to address each child’s needs individually and systematically, WILL succeed.

It’s time to learn how reading works. Learn what to teach, when to teach it and how to teach it. Your assistance with your child’s education will be remembered by them in years to come. A parent’s involvement in their child’s education is known to be a good indicator of how successful a child will be in years to come.

When your child is still a baby, it is a good time to aim to learn how phonics works. Your understanding will need to be ahead of what you will need to teach your child. When a baby learns to speak, they’re already listening to and imitating the sounds that they hear. So, train their perceptive powers to help with reading readiness. The first two steps in learning to read tend to happen side by side. Help with reading needs to be consistent and in line with your child’s ability to learn. Your help with reading can set up your child for a lifetime of successful learning.

Help with Reading – Step One – Images

Help with Reading - Train Perception

Start with pictures when you help with reading. A child’s perceptive powers can be enhanced by becoming more observant about the world around them. Look for similarities and differences in pictures. When you give help with reading, point out the detail in what they see, hear and do. When you begin to help with reading, the similarities and differences between letters need to be noticed. There is a special chapter for parents on how to achieve this in the Practice Reading and Speaking” book. (Preview and look inside this ‘help with reading’ eBook here.) This books will give you all the help with reading tuition that you need. Using common situations to enhance perception, will help when you teach reading. Play memory games. Show them a picture, cover it, then see what they can remember. When you help with reading keep tasks within the ability of the child, always aiming one step higher than they can currently reach. To help with reading, ask questions which prompt careful observation. E.g. How many kids had a hat on? How many children had a ball? What games were being played? Achievable challenges are rewarding when success follows.  Confidence when you help with reading will ensue.

Help with Reading – Step Two – Sounds

Help with Reading - Listen and Copy Sounds

Compare and contrast sounds as well as images. This can be done by asking specific questions to draw out the child. Is that a bus we can hear or is it a lorry?  Was that song too soft or too loud? Can you hear a tap dripping? How far or how close is the sound that you are hearing? Help with reading by playing, ‘Spot the Difference’ with sounds. Being able to listen carefully and discriminate between sounds is vital to phonic skills. When you help with reading, vocalizing a wide variety of sounds will prepare a child for reading. Teach the sound animals make or words like splash, drip or buzz. Play ‘Be my Echo’. The child needs to copy every sound that you make no matter how ridiculous it sounds. Use funny voices at different pitches in this game. When you help with reading, your child needs to be used to separating everyday sounds so that listening to sounds within words becomes second nature.
