Literacy is a gift teachers can pass to their students. To further reinforce the students' literacy skills at home, they can play word games, talk about word meanings, and point out interesting or new words when reading together with their parents or siblings. Ask questions before, during, and after reading aloud. This can help students focus attention on the ideas in the story. Before reading, look at the book cover and talk about what might happen in the story. During reading, ask what questions he has about the story. After reading, talk about what happened. Ask your child to sum it up and relate the story to what he already knows or has experienced.
