New Resource: Supporting Families Who Struggle with Reading at Home

Beyond Read 20 Minutes

I’m sharing a new professional resource I’ve developed for educators, therapists, and family support professionals: Beyond Read 20 Minutes: Supporting Families Who Struggle with Reading at Home.

This guide addresses what many of us see in our work: families who understand reading is important but struggle traditional literacy advice at home.

It includes:

• Research on why “read 20 minutes” fails stressed families

• Conversation language professionals can use immediately

• A parent handout ready to print or share

• Evidence-based guidance on connection-focused reading

If you work with families or know professionals who do, this might be useful.

My best,
Quinn

P.S. If your organization is interested in training on connection-focused approaches to family reading, I'm now offering professional development for teams. Reply to this email and we can explore what that might look like.
