Is your child really reading, or are they just guessing? In this episode, we uncover why relying on pictures, first letters, or context clues might seem helpful but actually holds children back from becoming confident readers.
You will learn:
The common guessing strategies children use and why they don’t build real reading skills.
How decoding and phonics, not guessing, strengthen the brain for fluent word recognition.
The long-term problems guessing can cause, from misreading to poor spelling.
Practical strategies parents and teachers can use to support accurate, phonics-based reading.
If you want to help children move beyond guessing and build the strong decoding skills they need for lifelong success, this episode will give you the insight and tools to get started.
