Tips to Improve your Child’s Reading Skills

Words
Decoding of words is the awareness of the 
letters and the sounds, that words make, along 
with the understanding of they mingle to form a 
sentence. Read the words and sentences aloud 
and slowly to make your child understand this 
procedure. Then, to check whether your child 
understood this, ask them to read the same 
sentence aloud. When they read slowly, it gives 
them more time to process.

words they read or see in the books. Hence,

books and learn better.
Moreover, pick stories that are interesting for 
them and that could be anything like, fairies, 
cars, adventures, etc. Everyone likes to read 
about topics they are interested in.
