Here are some tips for becoming a great reading partner:

• Be patient and encouraging.
• Read aloud and track the words with your finger as you are reading.
• Read the same stories over and over. Try reading the same stories in different ways, with different voices to make it fun and interesting.
• Ask questions about the story while you’re reading to gauge comprehension.
• Gently correct mistakes and re-read the entire sentence.
• Give positive feedback and tell the reader he or she is doing a great job.
