    Learn how active reading increases reading skills.
    < br>
    Active reading involves reading a book \;with \;a child rather than reading a book \;to \;a chil d. Active reading works with children from as young as six months through s ixth grade (for younger children you'll want to focus more on the pictures) . This research-based approach improves children's language skills\, vocabu lary\, and ability to understand what they read on their own.
