The Room Mom has a post up today about helping your child improve her reading fluency with lots of practical tips. If your child is doing a lot of reading on her own, do you know if she comprehends what she is reading?

Doing this occasionally is not catastrophic but it can become a bad habit that will affect your child’s understanding of what she reads.
