Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parental involvement in children's education is a subject of growing interest and recent legislation in both the UK and USA has given formal recognition of parents’ rights. Learning to read is an obvious area where parents can do a great deal to help, and some schools have had programmes for parental involvement in reading for some time. However recent research has shown the considerable benefit in having carefully structured systems for parental involvement. This book presents a review of past and current good practice in this field. Details of a wide range of schemes developed in local areas are given in a series of short contributed papers, which are grouped into sub sections of Part 2 according to the type of project. Part 3 is essentially a manual of materials and methods. The emphasis throughout the book is on service delivery to all children although there is of course considerable discussion of remedial reading and children with special needs The book should appeal to a wide audience in education, educational administration and educational psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Raising children's interest in reading" is a comprehensive guidebook designed to empower parents and educators with practical strategies to cultivate a lifelong love for reading in children. Drawing on research-backed methods and real-life experiences, this book offers a wealth of insights, techniques, and resources to enhance early literacy development and foster a deep connection with books. The book begins by emphasizing the importance of reading in a child's life and highlighting the concerning decline in reading interest among children. It explores the various factors that influence children's reading habits, such as age and developmental stages, personal interests and hobbies, social and cultural influences, and learning difficulties. By understanding these factors, parents and educators can tailor their approach to match each child's unique needs. Recognizing the crucial role of parents and educators, the book offers guidance on creating comfortable reading spaces, establishing a reading culture at home and in the classroom, and building a diverse and engaging book collection. It highlights the significance of age-appropriate books and encourages the selection of literature that reflects children's interests and experiences. The importance of embracing diversity and inclusivity in literature is also explored, promoting empathy and understanding among young readers. Addressing challenges such as learning difficulties and limited access to books, the book provides practical solutions and resources to overcome these barriers and ensure that all children have equal opportunities to develop a love for reading. Throughout the book, the significance of tracking progress, offering recognition and praise, and setting reading goals and incentives is highlighted. It emphasizes the role of positive role models and mentors in inspiring children to become avid readers and learners. Furthermore, it explores ways to encourage reading beyond the classroom, involving the wider community and promoting a love for learning and curiosity. By building a strong foundation in reading, children develop essential skills and a lifelong passion for learning. "Raising children's interest in reading" serves as an invaluable resource, empowering parents and educators to create an enriching reading environment and inspire children to embark on a lifelong journey of exploration and imagination through books.
