- Effective Strategies for Developing Reading Skills. Markham, Reed Elementary Education Library Role Parent Child Relationship Reading Aloud to Others Reading Difficulties Reading Improvement Reading Material Selection Reading Strategies Skill Development Young Children It is important for parents to teach their children to associate learning with sweetness, enjoyment, and pleasure. Suggestions to help parents make reading to their children a special time are: (1) make reading a "snuggle time"; (2) visit the library once a week; (3) develop a regular reading time with children; (4) select appropriate reading materials; and (5) do not stop reading to children just because they reach a certain age. The literacy crisis is enormous in California and throughout the United States. Parents can help their children and their community to confront this growing problem by becoming a literacy volunteer; becoming informed about the library's literacy programs; assisting children in recognizing the value of literacy; and helping their children overcome reading barriers.
