Does your child know some letter sounds but get stuck when it’s time to read a word? Or maybe reading homework ends in tears and you’re wondering what to try next.
I’m Christina Masterson, B.Ed., M.A. I’ve spent more than 30 years in education, including as a teacher, special education specialist and principal in Ontario.
In this free community for parents of children in Kindergarten to Grade 2, I share one research-backed reading tip a day. Each takes 10 minutes or less at the kitchen table, and I explain why it helps. We’ll practise things like hearing the sounds in a word, blending them together and reading simple words.
You can ask me questions about what you’re seeing at home and hear from other parents working through the same things.
