The ability to read, think critically, and make informed decisions about what you read is the imperative of our time. Making sure every child learns to read is essential. Ensuring that this feat is accomplished by the end of Third Grade is vital, as research indicates that Third Grade reading ability has long-term impacts on an individual's job prospects, health, and even how well they will fare in old age.
Momentum Family Guide is a companion guide to Momentum: Empowering Children to Read Through Passion, Partnerships, and Practice. Written for families, this guide provides research-based systems, strategies, and checklists to:
- Empower your child to become an enthusiastic reader by fostering their passion.
- Partner with your child's teacher to help your child learn and grow.
- Practice reading at home to build your child's skills and confidence.
- Help your child learn to self-calm because no one teaches us how to do this!
- Cultivate your parental joy as you watch your child learn and flourish at school.
How Momentum Family Guide works:
- The Story: Each section begins with a real-life situation that I've faced as a parent or seen as a teacher or principal, including my own goofs and gaffs.
- The Moves: Each chapter focuses on a strategy or 'parenting move' to support your child. (And maybe help you get your kid to do what you want them to do without arguing so much.)
- The Why: Each section includes the thinking and research for the key strategies.
- The Checklist: Step-by-step instructions for implementing each strategy.
