What are his interests? Find something he is interested in then go to the library and get tons of books about that. If he is young, even picture books to start out just to get him familiar and comfortable with books. When I was in the Master's program for Education at Ohio State, I tutored a 3rd grade boy who was on a Kindergarten reading level and soon he was able to read anything I gave him. It was because I made it fun, relevant to his life and interactive. Give him games to work on comprehension and let him write his own stories to read back to you. If he is not old enough to write his own, then you dictate for him, letting him write whatever he is able to and help him read it back. Just make him want to do it. This is the key to teaching anything. Try Harry Potter, most kids get into that. :)

Everytime my son says a new word. He is autistic and six months ago they said he would never talk and now he has over 100 words. Sure you can't understand some of them unless you have been around him, but it is still a "jaw dropping" moment.

To be honest the best way to help your child is to take them to the local library and borrow learning books. It will teach your child to appreciate books and there are so many stories and authors to choose from they will be spoilt for choice.\n\nI taught my children using the leap pad thing. It is expensive but I am sure you can pick one up second hand on ebay or somewhere like that.\n\nThere is a site called letterland which is what they use a lot in England. It shows you how to form each letter and they can be remembered easily because each letter has a character. \nThe internet is great for getting information, but you are the only one really that can help them. Take your time, be patient and take it at their pace.\nI also labelled lots of things around the house for a while and it didn't take my children long to read and spell most of the words. It can look messy with lots of post it notes everywhere but they come away easily and if it helps your child, so what!!!!\n\nGood luck x\n\nhttp://www.letterland.com/index.html

A good bl*wj*b will slow him down!  You are the mother of a five yr. old.  You should know by now.

Have you talked to your son to see if it is what he wants to do?  If it is, just let him know that it may be a little harder and he may not the get A's and B's he is use to but he can't get discouraged and quit.

try to motivate this child, for example every time he or she does something right give praise. If that does not work, put him in a slower class.

She needs strategies.  While she's reading, teach her strategies to figure out words by asking, "What makes sense?", "What word looks like that? (letters)", "What word makes those sounds".  Get yourself a parent or high school volunteer that can listen to her read aloud every single day.  Make sure the books are at an appropriate level and send those books home to be read over and over.  I like www.readinga-z.com, but there is a fee to join.

Be very patient, if you are reading along with them don't give them the words they struggle with too quickly - let them try to sound it out themselves - but don't wait until they are frustrated either because then it will make reading less fun.  \n\nOnce the reading part improves, I think the writing part will come more naturally.

Take him to the doctor, have his hearing checked, if he is making grunting noises and such, there may be something that is blocking his hearing like water in the ear canal and or his vocal ability, Best to learn now and get him help, speaking and hearing adds so much to being able to comprehend the world around you.\n\nYou may want to consider the possibility of autism.  Children with autism often lose their words they previously had such as baba, mama, dada, and etc. around age 2 to 3. \nPut up phrases and words all around your house on flashcards, read them with him, see if he'll try to mimick what you are reading, or try to sound out the words with you.\n\nGood Luck

yeah, i can help.  i can help you be a better parent by giving you some advice:  don't do your son's homework for him.  you are sending him to school to learn, aren't you?  how is he going to ever learn how to do anything if you spend days doing his work for him?  \n\nsure, he might end up with an A in first grade, but who cares about what you got in first grade?  you could make an argument that grades are important to his future if they are high school grades, but it's far more important that he actually *learn* things at this age.\n\nsheesh.

Make sure your daughter understands the alphabet and what sound(s) each letter makes.  Then use a basic book and read it with her.  You can read one page and she can read the next.  If she is stuck on a word, instead of telling her the word, help her sound it out.  Another strategy to tell her is to look at the pictures to figure out what the word might be.  I hope this helps.

Well you can start from the basicsin reading,Make his parents aware(if they are not already) of the situation and offer extra help for him. By you teaching him on your time and getting a tutor or a certified teacher to teach him at home on his time... I found that these methods work. Find his interest and give him book on those interest for him to read..

Something is wrong. Most children learn to read by the latter part of Kindergarten, if not before. Children at the third grade level should be able to read at least 110 words per minute. He definitely needs intervention before it is too late! Research shows that children who do not read on grade level by the end of third grade tend to not ever read on level.Have your boyfriend step in and get involved and work with his son's teachers to determine the reason for the problem.
