We often see students begin to struggle with reading as expectations shift from learning to read, to reading to learn. Struggling with this shift can have implications on a student's ability to meet learning demands across all content areas, especially as they move into middle and high school.
How can you recognize a struggling reader? What prevents students from becoming more fluent readers? What can parents do to support and motivate their students' reading?
