I have always been a huge fan of developing reading skills in children. For some children, reading can be difficult or frustrating. This is the case with R at times due to her dyslexia. Instead of admitting defeat I found a fun way to motivate her to read. I told her that she could watch any movie that goes with a book she is approved to read after reading the entire book. Here are 10 books made into movies for kids that you can use to encourage your child to read more.
How my Dyslexic Child Became a Strong Reader
If you have been around the blog for a while you know that R is dyslexic and dysgraphic. However, R is also an incredible reader. As I type this my nine year old is working her way through the Harry Potter books. This seems to stump a lot of people because she is dyslexic. I will say it didn’t come easy. A lot of hard work went into teaching her to read. If you have a dyslexic student that is struggling with reading I want to share how my dyslexic child became a strong reader.
