How To Raise Strong Readers

With the holidays approaching, here’s a little Word Nerd reminder about the importance of reading with kids.  Perhaps you can include books on gift lists, or use family time to encourage reading.  The following slide show from the Harvard Graduate School of Education outlines strategies to get kids reading and keep them reading into their teen years.  I hope you find this resource helpful and that you will share it!

What techniques have you found helpful to encourage kids to read?
Thanks for getting nerdy with me,
