Yep, I said it, if you don’t have a strong phonics foundation because that method of literacy instruction wasn’t used with you, then you might be doing some things wrong. This video shares my top 4 things I notice parents do when trying to help their student that are WRONG. Stay tuned so you can learn easy ways to support your student in a “just right” way.
