Children can become bored from reading in the same manner each day. One way you can increase reading motivation in your son or daughter is by reading in a different manner each day. Some different ways you can read are listed below:
  • Shared Reading—This interactive reading experience involves reading along side a child as a means of modeling reading strategies and fluency skills.
  • Interactive Read Aloud—A systematic method of reading a book aloud in a manner that scaffolds a child’s understanding of the book being read
  • Partner Reading—A child takes turn reading to another child to build fluency skills
  • Guided Reading—Small group reading instruction that provides supports a child while develop reading strategies and skills.  
  • Independent Reading—Reading that is done by a child with little or no assistance from a peer or adult.
Feel free to like, comment, or share. Remember that everything is better through books!

    About Me:

    My name is Dr. Terry Husband and I am an Associate Professor of Early Childhood and Elementary Literacy at Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois. I am also a father of three beautiful daughters and passionate about reading. Research suggests that fathers play a very critical role in a child's literacy development. At the same time, many fathers are unsure how they might best support their child's literacy development outside of school. This blog is designed to encourage and support fathers as they read to and with their children on a regular basis outside of school. As you browse this blog, you will find articles, tools, and links to assist you in this journey. I hope you enjoy!
