Am getting worried re: ds1's (7) reading and am cross with myself as I feel I am letting him down.
I am trying to ease off and not pressure him as he already hates literacy and reading due to his experiences at school (he was labelled a sruggling reader in year 1 and was made fun of becasue of it) but I am getting worried because he no longer reads at night to us anymore (I was quite strict about it but dh is less so) and he appears to have forgotten some of the sight words that I know he knew 6 months ago when we took him out of school.
I just do not know what to do.....do I just carry on as we are with him doing very very little reading and hope he gets fed up and decides he wants to learn to read? or do I need to do something now? I am even considering hiring a tutor once a week as I feel I hve done so badly at this
Any advice gratefully received...
