Some things you can do to help support your child.

Talk with the school and advocate for literacy teaching and support that is:

•Explicit directly teaches literacy skills
•Systematic and cumulative has a defined and logical sequence
•Structured has step-by-step procedures for introducing, reviewing, and practicing concepts

At home:

•Find ways to help your child connect letters to sounds in everyday activities.
•Introduce your child to audiobooks. Their reading level may be below their reading age so audiobooks are a great way to access stories.
•Support your child with their reading at home and talk about their achievements so they can see how they have improved and have a sense of positivity about other strengths they may have.

For more information about supporting and advocating for your child visit our Resources page for more helpful advice and downloadable fact sheets.
