  • Raising Readers: Tips for Parents
    Raising Readers: NIU Literacy Clinic Tips for Parents What is Reading Vocabulary? Adapted from: Elish-Piper L. (2010). Information and Ideas for parents about fluency and vocabulary. Illinois Reading Council Journal, 38(2), 50-51 Reading vocabulary refers to the words that a student can read and understand. When students know more words, they are more able to understand what they read. There is a strong connection between understanding the meaning of words and understanding a story, textbook, or other reading materials. Children learn new words in two main ways – indirectly and through instruction. Children learn words indirectly through reading, listening to others read to them, and having conversations with others. Most words that children learn are learned through indirect methods! This means that it is very important to have your child read, listen to others read to him or her, and participate in conversations since these indirect methods will help to build your child’s vocabulary. Children also learn words through instruction at school and in other educational settings. Through a combination of indirect vocabulary encounters and vocabulary instruction, children can learn the words they need to succeed as readers. What Can Parents Do to Promote Vocabulary Development at Home? Here are a collection of ideas to build children’s reading vocabulary at home using indirect and instructional strategies and activities. 1. Talk with your child and try to use new and interesting words. Exposing your child to new words is a great way to build your child’s interest in learning words. 2. Read to your child as often as possible.
