Helping parents teach their children to read
Does anyone have any online examples of resources on how to help parents teach their children to read? Are there any teacher tools available that would give parents strategies to support what you are doing in the classroom.

My mom used this book to teach many of her 11 (!) children how to read. Highly recommended. http://www.amazon.com/Teach-Your-Child-Read-Lessons/dp/0671631985

The very best tip would be to start with a "real live" book, and to curl up together with your child on the couch!!!! This will great good associations, and you will have a "memorable" moment!! Thank you Lorna!

I am not sure if this is what you are looking for but Starfall ( http://www.starfall.com/ ) is a great resource. They do have store to purchase materials. Also, Into the Book is a great site for Reading Comprension: http://reading.ecb.org/ . Hope this helps.

My 21-month-old LOVES starfall!
She knew her letters and sounds by about 18 months. I think this site helped quite a bit. You really do have to play around in it with a child to "get it".

Great discussion and very excited about your podcast. I'm doing some work for www.k12reader.com It covers 10+ areas. It also allows teachers, parents, and students to make word puzzles to make reading fun.
Thanks for being a resource for the teaching and learning community!

Yes there is a game that children love to play. It has been used in the class room, and at home. It can be purchased on line. But if you go to http://www.read-phonics.com, and to their contact page you can order it at a discount by phone.
