Read a Book 15 Minutes Each Night!!
Have your child read independently or out loud to you 15 each night. Here are some good questions to ask your child before, during and after reading to you:
Before: Show the cover of the book and have them predict what they think it will be about (predicting)
During: Ask them what they think will happen next or why they think a character made a particular choice (inferring)
After: Ask your child if their predictions came true. Then ask them to summarize what happened in the story or in the chapter to you.
