Reading with children helps build a strong foundation for academic success. Reading skills help determine a child’s ability to master content and knowledge and progress in school. The “Retelling Glove” is a way to help your child learn how to retell a story. Retelling a story helps children practice reading comprehension and helps them understand the heart of the story. By using the “Retelling Glove” children will learn to ask questions as they read which helps them develop critical thinking skills.
