My child is 6. I have them do 10-20 min of guided reading daily, meaning I sit with them and help where needed. They read mostly on their own though. I started because school was basically not teaching anything and giving half assed explanations why not.
How much do you do? Wondering if I’m an asshole parent 😅
I always read to my kid before bedtime. He started to learn to read while in kindergarten, and I began having him read me one book a night (with a lot of help) before reading to him. He’s gotten much better, and now he reads me the same number of books I read to him. I’ve gotten a few early reader compilation books from target which provide a good variety (though the material quality is pretty terrible - they started falling apart after a few days).
