Reading is one of the most important skills that anyone can develop. A person's ability to read could help them find sources for news, enjoy personal correspondence, and, of course, find a great career. Children begin learning to read in kindergarten, with the help of phonics training, such as phonological awareness, and learning about homophones and homographs. Later, reading comprehension continues to be important for all classes and standardized tests like the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS). Even college entrance tests like the SAT, ACT, and GRE have a required reading comprehension section, so schools can see how proficient potential students are in this area. You want your child to do well throughout their lives, and that means being able to read well. But how can you help them improve?
