Dear Family Member: Copyright © Scholastic Inc. All rights reserved. Your child is becoming a skilled independent reader! And the guided reading books that your reader will bring home are designed to help in this process. As part of the Scholastic Guided Reading Program, your child will participate in small groups and will receive individualized instruction to develop fluency, oral language, vocabulary, phonics, comprehension, and writing skills. In addition, your child will bring home enjoyable, level-appropriate stories and selections that will help to ensure his or her success as an independent reader. Here are some suggestions for helping your child before, during, and after reading: Before • Look at the book cover with your child. Together, review the illustrations or photographs in the book. Ask your child to predict what the story or selection will be about. • Discuss what you and your child might already know about the topic of the book you are about to read. • If your child is a beginning reader, echo-read the story or selection with your child by reading a line first and having your child read it after you. If your child is a more skilled reader, periodically stop and ask questions. During • If your child does not recognize a word right away, help him or her to focus on the familiar letters and spelling patterns in the word. Guide your child to think about other words that look like the unfamiliar word. • Encourage your child to use phonics and decoding skills to sound out any new, unfamiliar words. If necessary, provide the word if your child struggles. • Encourage your child to read with expression and to enjoy reading! After • Encourage your child to reread the story or selection to develop confidence. If the book is long, reread a few favorite sections or chapters. Perhaps your child could read the story or selection to other family members or friends. • Discuss the story or selection with your child. Ask questions such as: What were your favorite parts? Who were your favorite characters? Why? What interesting fact did you learn? • Have your child keep a journal of favorite stories and selections and interesting words in those books. Your child might also like to write about the book in this journal. Have fun with this reading experience and your child will have fun, too!

Copyright © Scholastic Inc. All rights reserved. Estimado padre o tutor: Su niño está en el proceso de convertirse en un lector hábil e independiente. Los libros de lectura guiada que su niño llevará a casa han sido concebidos para ayudar en este proceso. Como parte del Programa de Lectura Guiada de Scholastic, su niño recibirá instrucción en grupos pequeños e individualizada con el objetivo de desarrollar la fluidez, el lenguaje oral, el vocabulario, la fonética, la comprensión y las destrezas de escritura. Además, su niño llevará a casa lecturas amenas y apropiadas a su nivel, que le servirán para garantizar su éxito como lector independiente. Éstas son algunas sugerencias para ayudar a su niño antes, durante y después de la lectura: Antes • Observe con su niño la cubierta del libro. Repasen juntos las ilustraciones o fotografías del libro. Pídale a su niño predecir de qué tratará el cuento o la selección que van a leer. • Comenten lo que usted y su niño ya sepan sobre el tema del libro que van a leer. • Si su niño es un lector principiante, lea usted primero una línea y pídale que lea esa misma línea después. Si su niño es un lector más avanzado, haga una pausa de vez en cuando para hacerle preguntas. Durante • Si a su niño le resulta difícil reconocer alguna palabra, ayúdelo a fijarse en las letras y patrones ortográficos con los que esté familiarizado. Guíe a su niño en la búsqueda de otras palabras que se parezcan a la palabra desconocida. • Anime a su niño a usar la fonética y las destrezas de decodificación para leer en voz alta cualquier palabra nueva o desconocida. Si su niño tiene dificultades para hacerlo de manera independiente, lea usted la palabra. • Anime a su niño a leer de manera expresiva y a disfrutar de la lectura. Después • Anime a su niño a volver a leer el cuento o la selección para que gane confianza como lector. Si el libro es demasiado largo, vuelva a leer algunas de las secciones o pasajes favoritos. También puede pedirle que lea el cuento a otros familiares o amigos. • Comente con su niño el cuento o la selección. Hágale preguntas como las siguientes: ¿Qué partes te gustaron más? ¿Qué personajes son tus favoritos? ¿Por qué? ¿Qué hecho o dato importante aprendiste leyendo este libro? • Pídale que lleve un récord de sus cuentos y selecciones favoritos, así como de las palabras interesantes que encuentre en los mismos. También, puede llevar un diario con comentarios sobre los libros. Disfrute de la lectura. ¡Su niño, de seguro, también disfrutará!
