The Discovery Reading Club
5 days. 5 activities. Zero assigned reading.
A free guide for parents of K-5th graders who want their kids to love reading but are tired of the daily battle.
I'll send it straight to your inbox so you can start whenever you're ready.
No spam, ever. Just one helpful guide and a few follow-up tips.
Most struggling readers I work with don't have a reading problem. They have a motivation problem. Reading has become the thing they do when someone makes them. It feels like work. It feels like proof that something is wrong with them.
This challenge changes that. Over 5 days, your child will explore, build, create, and teach. Reading will happen naturally along the way, not because you assigned it, but because the activity needed it.
Your kid picks something they love and digs in. Sports stats, game walkthroughs, animal facts. They choose.
Take reading off the couch. Signs, menus, trail markers, store shelves. Reading is everywhere once you look.
Follow instructions to make something real. Recipes, paper airplanes, LEGO builds. Reading with a purpose.
Your kid puts their own words into the world. Game rules, reviews, comics, stories. No spelling corrections allowed.
They teach someone else what they discovered. When a kid teaches, they own the knowledge.
What they actually care about. Not what you think they should read. What they'll willingly read.
Whether the struggle is skill or motivation. This challenge separates the two quickly.
How to stop the daily battle. Once reading has a purpose, the fight goes away on its own.
I'm a reading tutor in Bozeman, Montana, and I run The Discovery Reading Club. I work with K-5th graders who struggle with reading using Orton-Gillingham structured literacy methods.
I built this challenge because I kept hearing the same thing from parents: "I can't get my kid to read." And every time, the fix started with the same question: what does your kid actually want to read about?
This guide helps you answer that question in 5 days. No pressure, no timers, no assigned reading. Just activities that make reading feel like what it's supposed to be: interesting.
The challenge is free. It takes about 15 minutes a day. And your kid might actually have fun.
