Reading Websites
            There are resources for teaching children how to read that are found on the internet. Reading has what we need online include: curriculum for teachers and tips for parents and they are all found in this site. This reading website is wonder way to supplement other reading instruction. Recent research in literacy has found that most effective literacy programs, including reading websites, cover five key areas of literacy instruction:

·         Phonemic awareness
·         Phonics
·         Fluency
·         Vocabulary
·         Text comprehension

The ABC Reading Eggs program uses different phonemic awareness activities that help young readers in rhymes, and listening skills. The Reading Eggs program frames the teaching of phonemic awareness skills in a literacy program that sets a goal for children reading real books for meaning.
Also, ABC Reading Eggs uses a number of activities and lessons that introduce students to the sounds and letters that they make in a structured sequence. The goal of Reading Eggs is to have kids read real books.
However, ABC Reading Eggs Use a variety of strategies to improve reading fluency. This program models fluency in reading all books, encourages the reading of a text, and uses a number of activities that increase reading comprehension. Most of the Reading Eggs activities develop readers’ speed in reading re-call of an increasing bang of high-frequency sight words.
As a result, the program (ABC Reading Eggs) provides focused literacy skill lessons in the skills bank area of the program. The program’s area covers the three core skills of spelling, grammar and vocabulary.
Furthermore, the program uses software that uses the comprehension strategies listed to help kids develop and have access to reading comprehension. Children are provided with supplement instruction they receive in school and at home. It covers all the key areas of instruction in its lessons, so kids can be able to be fluent in reading and understand what they read.

             My child LOVES Reading Eggs! This program has been exactly what I’ve been looking for. We tried two other popular reading programs and while they were fun, they just didn’t translate to my child becoming a reader. He’s a reluctant reader, capable but frustrates easily. With Reading Eggs I have never witnessed an ounce of frustration, just watched my son having fun. And even better—I’ve watched him start to read in such a natural progression—that is a beautiful thing to watch. Thank you Reading Eggs!” C. Bryant
