"Ethan really struggled with reading comprehension so we spent a lot of time practicing reading through short, engaging stories that focused on sound pronunciation and segment of letters. Using digraphs to help reinforce beginning sounds followed by worksheets helped Ethan become a stronger reader.

Discussing difficult words ahead of time helped improve his reading and comprehension significantly.
