      Can anybody give me an example of the kind of books that a 6 year old should be reading?


      For example, ORT Stage 7? Or some other book titles for me to have a general gauge of the level of difficulty that my daughter should be attempting now.

      Thank you!

        You might want to try Usborne Young Reading Series. It has Series 1, 2, and 3. Short chapter books with colourful illustration. Some shorter children classic written by Roald Dahl - Enormous Crocodile & The Minpins. Magic Tree House series is highly recommended too.

        Btw, what is ORT? :oops:

            There are some workshop for teachers/ parents for compre, compo strategy, some named ‘compre strategy for weaker students’. Before you go, please take note that compre 阅读理解 is for pupils who can read阅读. If your child can read a passage, then I do have some effective techniques to recommend to you. If your child is very weak, P1P2 word also cannot recognize, then you should focus on the foundation, which is oral and listening, plus some reading of basic word ‘P1P2生字表’.

            Please leave your questions here, I will try to answer.
