As students are identified as being at-risk for a reading disability or are struggling with reading concepts, it is important that teachers be able to effectively communicate this information with families. The teacher must be able to articulate what is involved with the reading disability or area where the student is struggling, the process for identification, and what types of strategies will be effective for their child.
