STRUGGLING   READERS

Everyone has those students in their classrooms that just have difficulty learning to read.  They need to be given plenty of TLC right from the gecko.  The kindergarten teachers need to acknowledge those students and NOT push them on with the rest of the class.  They need to equip them with the correct materials to help them learn the skills right from the beginning that they haven't yet absorbed.  Please if your kindergarten teacher is telling you that your child is struggling then understand YES that could be TRUE but please also make sure that the teacher is giving your child the materials to help them not hinder them.
