It’s the Brain, Not the Books!
Rethinking the Reasons Kids Struggle to Read

When your child is reading below grade level or just struggling to grasp reading, it’s tempting to fall into a few different traps…

→ “Just give it time; it’ll click eventually.”

→ “We just need to change curriculum (again) to find one that’s at their pace.”

→ “As long as I keep exposing him/her to books, they’ll develop an interest.”

While well-intentioned, these beliefs are actually incredibly harmful because they prevent seeking intervention that could make all the difference in building reading confidence. So what should you do instead? In this class, we unpack some helpful tools to understanding the root cause of reading struggles. Leave the interactive workshop with a better understanding of the brain, how it works, and why it is important to focus on brain skills for reading.
