Dear Parents,
I found myself needing a reminder today! Motivation most often happens intrinsically(from the inside).
When you are creating a lifelong reader in your child............ Let them choose the bedtime story. You will not be sorry when you see their excitement. Also, if they are easily excitable (like mine sometimes is) let them read to themselves at the end of the day. Choose your own book that you like to read so they see you enjoying reading too. Sit with them and read together. Here is a great article from a teacher with great reasons to create child-centered learning in your home.
