Setting the Stage

  • Help make reading a part of a daily routine. Some families find it helps to schedule in reading time, like right after school or before bedtime.
  • Set up a reading space that is comfortable and where the reader(s) won’t be disturbed by others. Provide a variety of reading materials – fiction and non fiction texts – available for children to choose from.
  • Model reading – in any language – to children. This may include talking to them about what you are reading, or discussing your favourite genres of books.
