Hi,
I am Karen Sheedy, the reading specialist and Reading Recovery teacher at Nokesville Elementary. The reading program at NES is designed to support students, parents, and teachers through balanced literacy. The goal of the program is to create a community of readers and writers.
Parents can be instrumental partners in ensuring their children's success with literacy. Reading to your child will provide models of strong reading skills and literary language. It also introduces children to new concepts and vocabulary, and builds listening skills. Recent research emphasizes the importance of daily reading. By listening to your young child read everyday, including weekends, and expecting your older child to read daily as well, you can support your child's attempts and help them develop successful reading strategies. By having conversations about the books your child reads, you can help strengthen his comprehension.
