Should my child be reading every night?
How do I know if a book is just right for my child?

 Should my child be reading every night?
Yes! Yes! Yes! We will have designated nights when the children will be bring 
home books from class, but the children should be reading every night for at 
least 20 minutes. If you must skip a night, try to get in a few extra minutes 
the following night. This goes for math facts as well. Children should be 
working on their addition and subtraction facts each night to improve speed 
and acuracy.

 How do I know if a book is just right for my child?
As we go on your child should be able to tell you the answer to this 
question, but things to look for are: Are there too many words on the page my 
child can not pronounce? Can they explain to me or summarize what they have 
just read? Are they reading in a voice that is similiar to their own or is it 
robotic sounding? Is it a book they seem interested in?
