The Most Important Thing!

The most simple, but important thing that parents can do to enhance their children's reading comprehension skills is READ with them. The more you can read with you children the better. However, simply reading is not enough.
As you are reading to or with your children be sure to engage the children in the book; make it a fun experience for them. Use different voices for each character; you are with your kids don't be embarrassed! Depending on the age and reading level you could even break the story into different part. Let your child speak for one of the characters.
The more fun and engaging the reading time that you have with your children is the more they will enjoy it. This will make the story more memorable for them.
Reading to children is SO important. Parents can even make pledges to read with their children at least 20 minutes a day!
It's like Nike; just do it
