Reading comprehension has always been a weakness for me. So, now I’m trying to sharpen my reading comprehension skills.
Or it can even be about learning new games that kids play.

My kids don’t watch much tv but when they do I would like it to be something educational. The shows I keep recorded for them are Dora, Diego, Little Einsteins and Planet Earth. Do you think “Your baby can read” is just as good or better? How long until you noticed they were actually learning stuff from the video? How long have you used it? Did your kids learn how to read with this video? Thanks!

But it uses DVDs as the main instructional material and I know a lot of parents are hesitant to let their children watch television at a young age.
What do you think? Television for kids, yay or nay?

I think I can start to teach him how to read. Which one is the best Reading Learning Program that can help me teach him to read?

I think being forced to read mind-numbing, boring textbooks all throughout school killed my passion for reading. Every time I pick up a book, even if it’s an interesting subject, I start yawning and get very sleepy. Obviously it takes me forever to get through a single book, if I can get through it at all.
Any advice on how to become motivated to read again?

What do you think? If you disagree, please explain why in detail.

This doesn’t make sense to me. Unless of course they moved here from another country when they were already in their teens. But what about the kids who have lived here their whole life and still can’t read? I don’t get how they’re allowed to move from one grade to the next. Is this because of “No Child Left Behind”? If they can’t read, they should be “left behind” until they learn.

I am going to a weekend Quran class and I am learning, so I know a little bit. My husband told me to buy a Qaida for her, and everytime I learn something, to teach her. Is it okay to give her a Qaida? She is around my age, 22, and I don’t want to offend her or embarrass her for giving her a Qaida, which is generally what kids learn from. But, this is how I learned to read Quran too, just last year.
