Try the following:

1. Establish regular communication channels with parents to discuss the student's progress and needs.


2. Encourage active engagement from parents to share the child’s interests and brainstorm ways to incorporate more reading into their daily schedule naturally. With increased interest in the subject matter comes more engagement. 


3. Provide class materials in advance to help parents prepare their child for upcoming reading assignments.


4. Share specific reading strategies and techniques used in the classroom so parents can reinforce them at home.


5. Recommend assistive technologies that can be used at school and home, such as text-to-speech software or e-readers with adjustable font sizes.


6. Suggest high-interest, low-level books that are appropriate for the student's reading level and interests.


7. Encourage parents to read aloud to their child or use audiobooks while the student follows along with the text.


Whether setting aside time for daily reading, discussing books, or practising specific strategies, this collaborative effort helps students build confidence and consistency in their reading journey.
