Reading Tip #12: Find or pick books about relatable topics for your kids; i.e. we were going to the beach this summer, so we checked out several books about going to the beach and animal life found at the beach.

Reading Tip 11:
Read nonfiction books with your child that address their interests AND help them make real life connections. *(Text-world connections are what they're called.)  1. The Little Old Lady Who Wasn't Afraid of Anything
by: Linda Williams (*see my Instagram post for more details on this cute book that has long been a favorite of mine!) www.amazon.com/Little-Old-Lady-Afraid-Anything/dp/0064431835/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=the+little+old+lady&qid=1571538258&sr=8-1 2. Room on the Broom by: Julia Donaldson 3. How Many Pumpkin Seeds? by: Margaret McNamera 4. Scarecrow by: Cynthia Rylant 5. Five Little Pumpkins by: Dan Yaccarino Reading Tip #10: Use your finger, or another prop (like a finger flashlight) to point out words as you read.
Reading Tip #9: Teach your child how to read the pictures and turn the pages at the appropriate time. (Reading the pictures helps pre-readers make sense of what's happening in the story; it can even lead them to make predictions about what will happen next!)
