Here is a great article to share with parents, perhaps during parent conferences.....
It exposes the key reasons to continue to read aloud with children, such as:
-experiencing the joy of a story
-builds awareness and empathy
-modeling fluent reading
-expanding their vocabulary
-exposure to new authors, texts and genres
-improves overall reading success
....which all leads to them more likely to keep reading on their own!
