Of course, you want your child to be literate. But what does that mean, exactly? And how can you help them get there? There are a lot of different ways to approach early literacy, but there are some key things that all children need in order to become strong readers and writers. From developing phonemic awareness to encouraging a love of reading, these tips will help you give your child a solid literacy foundation. Find out what experts have to say about our reading program: Dash Into Learning Expert Approved. Statistically Our Country's Children Are Reading Below Grade Level. There are clear indicators that can contribute to a child reading below grade level. One is whether or not the child has access to books and other reading materials at an early age. Studies have shown that children from families with lower incomes are more likely to read below grade level than their peers from higher-income families. Other factors that can affect a child's reading ability include how much exposure they have to age-appropriate reading material, whether or not they have someone at home who can help them practice reading, and whether they have any learning disabilities that make it difficult for them to process written information. Some sobering stats: About 1 in 3 children start kindergarten without basic reading and learning skills (University of Texas, 2005). 47% of fourth graders from low-income families read below the basic level (Rif.org). Only 35% of public school students read at or above the proficient level. In Texas, the average drops to only 25% (U.S. Department of Education, 2017). Fortunately, there are a number of things that parents and caregivers can do to help children improve their literacy skills. We love adding fun reading activities to our reading activity packs, such as: learning games puppets coloring pages matching games bingo games secret codes recipes handwriting practice and so many more fun activities for your child! All of these supplemental activities reinforce what your child has been learning in a fun way. How You Can Help Improve Your Child's Reading There are a few key things you can do as a parent or guardian to help improve your child’s reading skills.
