Families and Caregivers
Coming Soon: Families and Caregivers
Families and caregivers play a crucial role in fostering language and literacy skills. They can also support schools as they adopt reading instruction that is aligned with the science of reading.
Families and caregivers of young children often report that the only resources available are from agencies that focus primarily on providing free books, which is essential but insufficient. They also report that when their children have difficulty with reading, educators tell them to “read more to your child at home.” While this is good advice, it also overshadows the necessity of directly addressing difficulties with explicit and direct instruction. Doing so can go a long way toward remediating and even preventing reading difficulties when they are addressed early.
