Move Your Kids PAST Simple Words and Sentences -- Teach Them the TRICKS!

Your kids need to know the "tricks" in order to read more than simple consonant-vowel-consonant words and/or words with blends.  As soon as your kids are blending and segmenting simple sounds with ease, begin teaching them the "tricks."

Having Trouble Teaching Your Kids How to Read and/or Write?  Worried Your Child Might Have a Learning Disability?

Picture
Bright kids who continue to struggle despite being taught HOW to read and write might have a learning disability of some sort.
There are many reasons why kids struggle to read and write.  Often, it is because they simply don't understand how letters and sounds work together to make words.  Because of this, it's important to make sure you have taught your kids:
  • Letters
  • Sounds
  • Blending/segmenting techniques
  • "Tricks" (*Lack of "Tricks" knowledge is often an underlying cause of struggle!)
  • How to adjust common "outlaw" words
It is also important to make sure you have given your kids enough PRACTICE utilizing these skills so they can internalize them properly. 

Unfortunately, some kids continue to struggle despite being taught everything they need to know to read and write.  If you suspect your child has a learning disability, consult your child's teacher and/or pediatrician to find out what you should do next.
