Use story time to build your child's reading skills!

To an onlooker, the activities Emma Moyer suggests you try when reading to emerging readers just seem like fun, but they will help you build children's critical reading skills.

Ms. Moyer, a second grade teacher and certified reading specialist in Virginia, has started a colorful blog featuring selected books and specific tips you can use to solidify young readers' skills. Ms. Moyer has her M.Ed. in Reading and uses Phonemic Awareness in Young Children as her "go-to resource" for the activities she recommends in her blog.

The activities are presented to parents but they are easily adaptable and equally useful for early childhood educators.
