How can you tell if your child is having difficulty reading? What are some things you can do at home to teach your child how to read? What do you do if you suspect a disability?

Rhyme, rhythm, pictures, phonemic awareness will be discussed and applied with a hands-on approach. Story telling techniques will be demonstrated. How to recognize if a child is having difficulty reading and what some of the warning signs of a possible disability will also be discussed. Content geared toward preschool families.
