HOW TO TEACH READING AT SCHOOL

Abstract

Reading is one of the most essential skills a child will acquire in his or her
lifetime. Because we live in a society where literacy is the key to success, this is the
case. When reading ability does not develop overnight, some parents and teachers
become concerned that they are on the wrong instructional track. However, the “right”
books and “best” method to teach reading depend on the individual child. No two
individuals will master reading at the same time or pace, and perseverance and patience
are essential, especially for children with learning difficulties or differences.
