DS1 is 6.5yrs old and since day he could hold one, has loved books. Assumed that when he started school, the ability to read would just click.
2nd year into school (in Scotland) and it still hasn't clicked, and I feel like it only the very basic of words that he can confidently read.
He's frustrated, discouraged and its getting hard to do the reading homework (he doesn't want to),although still gravitates to books in general (when on own)
So - any ideas of a way I can help reiterate some of the basics without him having to sit and read the book to me ? eg any good websites we could look at together that will take a slightly different approach ?
I'm confident that he'll get there, and the teacher hasn't expressed concern, but I'd love to be able to help him. (have two other little ones so finding time 1 to 1 isn't easy)
TIA
