***Reading tip***
Children must always keep EYES ON TEXT, especially at the point of difficulty in reading. Sometimes, children look up or away from an unknown word (like they are thinking about what the unknown word could be). Prompt children to "look at the word." Their eyes must see it in order for visual processing to occur to be able to read the word.
