Although reading is one of the basic skills in education, the process of learning to read is a complex science that involves a network of brain processes, environmental factors, and preliterate skills that children must acquire to become skilled readers. It is the number one skill that all children need to succeed in every other subject and life. Throw into that mix – what it takes to create kids that love to read! Sounds a little daunting on where to begin, right? Don’t overwhelm yourself. Start where you are. Grow from there. Work from there. Build from there on what you know and keep on learning.
