"What is the best way to teach first-graders new words?"

Since youā€™re teaching first-graders, itā€™s important to teach them new words. The best way to do this is through reading. You must read to them every day and, when they come across a word they donā€™t know, stop and explain the word for them. You can also set up flash cards with words that the child will come across in their reading book. This way, when they read the word again later, they will already have an understanding of what it means because theyā€™ve seen the definition before.

"How do I know if my child is struggling with reading?"

Another important thing to remember is that you will never know if your child is struggling with reading unless you ask. If you see that your kid has really low marks on their reading assignments, always talk to them about it and find out what happened. It may be because they are having some difficulty with a certain word or reading for meaning, as opposed to decoding words.

 

Reading is not only a key part of education but also a life-altering event. That's why it's so important to help encourage early readers, even if it just means sitting down and reading a book together.

 

This can be one of the most rewarding aspects of parenting, and many parents forget how important this is for their kids. The best way to help your child learn how to read is to read together every night. This will let them see how you take interest in what they are doing and it will make them want to read more themselves.
