“They Laughed When My Daughter Opened Her Book”But When She Started To ReadThey Were Amazed She Could Read So Well At Such A Young Age. Dear Parents:
Is your child struggling with reading? Is he or she a very
slow reader? Is your child’s reading ability affecting the other
subjects your child is learning at school?
Then you are not alone. Schools nowadays are very
competitive places. Kids are there to make it, but some get
left behind. Actually quite a large number get left behind. Is your child one of them?
According to the U.S. Department of Education, National
Center for Education Statistics (2009). The Nation's Report
Card: Reading 2009 (NCES 2010–458). Institute of
Education Sciences, U.S. Department of Education, Washington, D.C.
“Thirty-four
percent of 4th graders cannot read a simple poem.”
Is your child one of them?
Even the 2005 Reading Assessment didn’t show any
remarkable improvement. It has basically remained the same over the
years. No serious improvements at all.
If your child is having problems with reading then you
should step in and help. Because if your child falls behind in
reading, then all subjects will be affected. Reading is the weakest
link in the learning chain. When your child is struggling with
reading then your child struggles with all subjects. You
Can Raise Your Children’s Self-esteem And Self-confidence By
Teaching Them To Read
You will find the children who are good at reading are also
good at other subjects. The good readers are usually always in the
top of the class in all subjects. But the number one difference
between the good readers and the bad readers is self-confidence and
self-esteem.
One of the biggest benefits of helping your children to
improve their reading skills. Is
the increase in self-esteem and self-confidence they will
experience. And this flows on to other subjects. You will
see the difference in your child. As your child’s reading
improves you will see their self-esteem increase also. And they
will become more self-confident as their grades improve over all
their subjects.
Teach
Your Children To Read And Write And Give Them A Head Start At
School
If your child has trouble reading exam papers then they will
have trouble answering the questions. So helping to improve your
child’s reading ability flows over to all subjects. Then your
child is not so worried about sitting exams or handing in written
assignments.
In today’s world your child’s attention is competing
against computer games, internet, TV, and play stations and what
ever else is out there to distract your child from learning. So
today’s kids are just not interested in spending too much time on
learning to read. Teach Your Children To Read And Write Using A Time-Tested Reading Method That Has Been Teaching Children For Over One Hundred Years
So in my quest to help struggling readers get up to speed in
reading I turned to a system that has been successfully teaching
children to read for a 100 years. This teaching method has always
been around but it never really took off in mainstream schools. It
is a hands-on approach to teaching reading. You, the parent, have
to be there to help teach your child.
It is not a teaching system where you sit your child in
front of the TV or computer and leave them to it. No, with this
system you have to be there, making up the phonic sounds and words
your child is learning. Then
helping your child trace the sandpaper letters the same way you
would write the letter. And while doing this, your child has to say
the phonic sound.
I’m talking about the Maria Montessori method of teaching
reading and writing using phonics sounds and sandpaper letters. Why Can Something So Out-Of-Date Teach So Well? Because it has passed the test of time.
Have
a look at what CBS News has to say about Montessori Schools. "Do Montessori Schools Have An
Edge" Children At Montessori Schools Develop Faster In Reading
And Math.
"The 5-year-old Montessori students were found to have
better reading and math skills, than their peers who attended
traditional schools."
So it looks like a teaching system that has stood the test
of time, is still making waves in the education world of today. Click The Buy Now For Your Copy |
