HOW TO IMPROVE READING SKILLS OF A CHILD?

TODAY, IN ADDITION TO PHONEMIC AWARENESS, SIGHT
WORD RECOGNITION, AND BLENDING, YOU SHOULD USE
HANDS-ON LEARNING ACTIVITIES, GAMES, AND
TARGETED TECHNIQUES, TO IMPROVE KINDERGARTEN
READING COMPREHENSION AND SKILLS.

START WITH A STRONG
FOUNDATION
Phonemic awareness is the first step in building
strong comprehension skills and thus attaining
overall reading success. The sound of each letter
should be learned by the kindergartner rather
than just merely reciting the alphabet.

PLAY KINDERGARTEN READING GAMES
To improve phonemic awareness and reading
comprehension skills, children should be
involved in hands-on activities.

ASK QUESTIONS

• Ask students to make predictions about what will
  happen next by just looking at the books title
  and illustrations before reading. Thus asking
  questions will help to improve a childs reading
  comprehension.
• During the reading, ask questions like what they
  think will happen next or ask about the
  characters in the story or ask about how the
  story made them feel and about the end of the
  story

BUILD VOCABULARY
Another excellent way to improve reading
comprehension is by increasing the students
vocabulary. To make sure that students dont
lose the meaning of the story, define them
unfamiliar words ahead of time. This will give
them confidence in their reading skills.

ENCOURAGE VISUALIZATION
You can encourage visualization in children by
teaching them to create mental images of what
they read, also called brain movies. Help them
in picturing the action of the story by making
them use their five senses and ask them to draw
the picture of what the character is thinking or
feeling. Thus this is a fun way to improve
students reading comprehension.
