Include Reading in Your Resolutions
The new year offers the opportunity to think about the past and set goals for the future.
This includes family reading goals!
Take time with your child to review favorite books or stories from the past year. If the books are nearby, look through them together. Have your child choose his three favorites. Ask, “What was the best part of this story? Why?” Or, “What is your favorite picture in this book?”
Discuss future reading plans. How much time are you both spending on reading for pleasure? Are there ways you can improve your reading habits?
Together, write any ideas or goals you may have. Post them where you can see them.
Make a plan for reading new things. Build into your schedule that golden “quiet time” for reading. Make this year your family’s best year ever for reading new and exciting materials!
