Here are a few simple things you can do to encourage your child to work on their reading skills outside of school:

 

  • Each week, review at least one of your child's assigned lessons.
    • Think of a few questions that you can use at the dinner table to encourage your child to summarize what they read and share any opinions they have formed about the content.

 

  • Use the My Lessons page to help your child review all assigned work.

 

  • Encourage your child to explore additional lessons in Achieve3000 Literacy outside of school.
    • They can use the Search feature to find articles aligned to their interests, such a sports, space, animals, or careers. They can even explore a multi-chapter fiction story written and their precise reading level! All their work will contribute to their improved reading abilities.
    • Resource: Available Achieve3000 Literacy Lesson Types

 

  • Provide encouragement if you see Respond scores below 75%.
    • Help your child understand the value of taking their time when reading the questions and encourage them to take advantage of tools such as the strikeout tool or referring back to the lesson before selecting a response.

 

 

  • Encourage reading at home!
    • The more your child reads, the stronger their skills become. Whether it's a picture book, chapter book, comic book, or magazine, establish a regular family reading time where everyone reads together.
