Helping a Child Who Is a Reluctant Reader

Many children are capable readers — but simply don’t enjoy reading. These reluctant readers often avoid books, resist reading assignments, and become frustrated when asked to practice.

The challenge is that reading is a skill that improves with practice. When kids avoid reading, they miss opportunities to build confidence and fluency.

So how do you help a reluctant reader?

One of the most effective strategies is turning reading into play.

Why Games Work for Reluctant Readers

Games remove the pressure that comes with traditional reading. Instead of focusing on performance, children focus on:

‱ Having fun

‱ Being creative

‱ Competing or collaborating

 ‱ Trying new words naturally

This creates a relaxed environment where reading skills can grow.
