For the Love of Literacy <3

Literacy 

Welcome to my podcast! I started this show in an effort to educate the public about the importance of literacy, especially when we have kids to look out for! I reference my time as an elementary schoolteacher & tutor + my current experience as a children's author & mama of 3 littles to address the biggest literacy issues facing us today.

Podcast #15: Reading Simplified with Marnie Ginsberg

READING TIPS: 
1. Kids need to learn to decode words first when learning to read. ("crack the code")
2.Let kids pick what they're interested in when it comes to reading.
3. Read widely! Gain volume once kids have learned to decode.  
4. Read with your child, & if they're resistant, say things like: "Oh, my voice is tired-- can you read these words to me?"
5. Make different genre or book suggestions to your kids.
