How do I help my child expand their vocabulary?

A child might be able to pronounce a word, but not know what it means. Helping your child expand their vocabulary is very important to improving reading comprehension.

Beginning readers must know the meaning of words before they can understand what they are reading. Kid Scoop News helps develop vocabulary when students discuss information presented in each page.

Reading Kid Scoop News with your child each month will introduce and provide practice using vocabulary that he or she will encounter in their school studies. If they don’t know the meaning of a word, you can explain it while reading together. Then have fun with words by doing the word searches and other puzzles.

Reading something every day is key!
