 Five tips to hook a reluctant reader...

Got a reluctant reader at home? Here are 5 evidence-based tips to help get them hooked on reading!

1. Give full choice: Let your child choose what they want to read - even if it’s a comic book, magazine, joke book or sports book. Choice builds motivation..

    

2. Try graphic novels: The combination of pictures and text can make reading feel more accessible and less overwhelming for reluctant readers.

    

         3. Use audiobooks: Listen to the audiobook while your child follows along with the                 words. This supports fluency, vocabulary and comprehension while making reading                   more enjoyable.

        4. Keep sessions short: Start with 10–15 minutes and build gradually. Finishing while                they’re still enjoying it is better than making reading feel like a chore.

        5.  Connect to interests: Cars, sport, gaming, animals, humour, Minecraft - whatever                   they love, find reading that connects to it.
