Teaching our Children to Champion Diversity: It All Begins at Home
With utter delight, pure innocence and genuine curiosity, one of my 5-year-old students once asked me if my skin was made of chocolate. My immediate thought was how awesome that would be, before I smiled and tried to explain to him, to the best of my ability, why I looked different from him.

So, it makes sense that learning to read from scratch is a big challenge for students and for parents too, who want to guide them as best they can.
