Literacy development is an evolving and non-linear process that encompasses
foundational skills (phonemic awareness),
word recognition, reading fluency,
vocabulary, and reading comprehension (Simms & Marzano, 2018).
For a student’s ultimate success, teachers must:
•
Understand how students learn these skills, and
•
Implement best practices when teaching these skills.
Learning to read should include exposure to a wide variety
of exciting books from
different genres. Students should also experience reading through different mediums,
such as interactive apps and web content.
Here are 10 strategies you can use to support your students in developing their reading
skills and boosting comprehension.
1. Read aloud to students
Read-aloud regularly in the classroom and encourage parents to do the same at home.
Reading aloud
has many benefits for students, including improving comprehension,
building listening skills, and broadening their vocabulary development.
2. Provide opportunities for students to read, write, and talk about texts
Regularly giving students time to read, write, and talk about texts can enhance their skill
development across multiple areas.
For instance, reading more helps you become a
better writer. By talking about texts and hearing
the perspectives of classmates, young
children also have the opportunity to deepen their comprehension. Encourage parents to

further engage young readers by asking them to help their
child attack difficult
words and ask questions about the text that will promote discussions.
