The Modern Homeschool

How to help a Struggling Reader at Home


Listen Later

Today on The Modern Homeschool Podcast, I am diving into a topic that is near and dear to my heart and that is how to help a struggling reader. I'll share how my daughter and I are working together and have been for years, to overcome her reading challenges. While there is no cure for dyslexia, and I am not a clinician, I can offer you suggestions about what i truly believe is working for our family.
Suggestions for helping your struggling reader at home:
1. Commit to using the program Lexia, for 15-20 minutes daily.

2. Encourage Children to choose books they are interested in or gravitate toward.
3. Sitting and reading with your child often.
4. Read alouds as a family. Reference The Read Aloud Family
5. Art Journaling, Favorite Journals linked here Arteza Art Journals
6. Consider Building Literature Studies, more information on this topic here:
