Enrichment and Reading Websites
The best learning children can do is related to play and discovery at home -- problem solving, strategizing, building, imagining, inventing -- and interacting with family and friends. The most natural activities at home are the deepest learning experiences -- reading and discussing a story, observing and talking as you travel about town, playing a game together, working on daily tasks or a special project.
Here are some websites about learning to read with strong comprehension and to find fiction and nonfiction books to share the joy of reading with your child and to fit your child's interests.
