  2. Recipe for Reading Reading is….. Ingredients needed: Great amounts of meaningful print, prior knowledge, support and positive reinforcement, and comprehension. Mix together what you already know with what you learn from the text. Reading is constructing meaning, making sense of print, not merely word identification in a linear fashion.

  3. People Read for Many Reasons -Pleasure and interest -Work -To obtain information -To understand directions -To learn about the world -To keep in touch with family and friends As an elementary student, your child may be asked to read for pleasure or to read to learn new information. In both cases, solid reading skills are necessary for success.

  4. Why Reading is Important Every ingredient is important in a recipe, just as reading is important in every subject in school and many areas of life. • Reading needed for other subjects: • Social Studies: Map reading • Science: following lab procedures correctly • Math: problem solving aspects • Social skills Your child may be discouraged from a subject if they are not attaining success at it. Struggles with Reading may lead to a poor attitude toward school.

  5. Why Reading is Important • It makes your child smarter (Forces brain cells to engage in activity as they paint a vivid image in their mind about the story they are reading.) • Increases vocabulary and language skills • Makes your child knowledgeable • Boosts creativity • Introduces you to new things • Improves writing and spelling skills.

  6. The Parents Part in the Baking Process • Parents have the greatest influence over their children. Therefore, the greatest responsibility for installing a love of reading in your child lies with you

  7. Tips to Make Sure the Cookie is Baking Properly • 3 Questions to consider while your child is reading: • 1. Does it make sense? • 2. Does it sound Right? • 3. Does it look right? • Encourage your child to use all three of these cues when they encounter an unfamiliar word.

  8. What You Can do at Home to Help Your Child Enjoy the Product Reading children stories aloud is one of the most important activities parents can do for their kids! Some questions to ask your children during reading: How Come? Do or does…I wonder….Why? Which? Where? I’m confused about…. I don’t understand…. Anything to get your child thinking is good for comprehension.

  9. Make Reading a Sweet Dessert • Show that reading is important to you as well, and that it is fun! You can set aside a “family reading time” each night, then share what you’ve all read. This will not only be a bonding experience, but will help increase comprehension and summarizing skills, both needed to be a successful reader

  10. Make Reading a Sweet Dessert • Treat reading as a reward. For example, if bedtime is 9:00, let your child know that they can stay up 15 minutes later if they want to read. • Make reading relate to the real world: Read directions with your child when putting together a new toy.

  11. More Suggestions…. • Read to children • Read with children • Leave books lying around on coffee table and countertops • Read newspapers and magazines • Subscribe to a magazine for your child • Discuss new words • Stay positive • Let them choose their own reading material • Provide a special reading place, that is comfortable and inviting.

  12. Recipe for a Good Reader • Just as sometimes we make mistakes while baking, add too much baking soda or forget the sugar, learning to read isn’t always a smooth process. But stay positive with your child, and one day they will create a delicious cookie!

  13. Recipe for a Good Reader • Even if your child didn’t have a good recipe (great reading skills) before entering school, he/she can still become a successful reader. • Make sure they have the correct ingredients at home (opportunities to read, questions asked, etc.) , and that you are putting in enough support to the dough. • With the right recipe, your child will learn to love their product, and become a baker for life!
