our child struggles with reading,f his reading lacks uency, younot alone! Many children learn

ndational building blocks (calledcessing skills) must be in placeorder to read eciently. The

mary processing skills for readingude: auditory processing, visualcessing, language processing,mory, and attention. Highlightseach area and their impact on

itory processing is your brainsty to correctly interpret sounds

sound combinations that areived by your ears. Phonemicreness is one aspect of auditory

cessing and it is the ability toectly receive and manipulatends. It is the greatest predictor

eading success. Weak auditorycessing can be compared to beinga bad cell phone call; you onlybits and pieces of informationit causes confusion, frustration,anxiety. Children with auditory

guage processing skills areritical component of reading.

purpose of reading is toprehend new information,

in order to comprehend,dren must have good vocabularywledge. Understanding non-al language is important in orderiscover the underlying meaning

words. Another aspect critical toprehension is visualization (i.e.,

turning language into a visualizedimage in your mind). Good languageexpression while reading aloudrequires fluency, phrasing, rhythm,and intonation.

Memory processing is the ability toretain information long enough for

it to be useful. According to JoanSmith, PhD, good visual and auditorymemory is necessary for readingsince they impact word-attack andcomprehension. Children who haveweak memory skills are unable toremember the sequence of lettersto quickly recall words, and they areunable to retain what they read.

Attention impacts all areas ofbrain processing and learning.Conversely, weak underlyingprocessing skills, such as thosepreviously mentioned, will stress

attention.A reading problem can result if anyof the processing skills mentionedabove are weak. When this is thecase, too much energy is spent tryingto compensate for the weaknesses,so reading and comprehensionare severely compromised. Theproblems will continue unlessthe weak skills are remediated bybuilding new neuropathways in thebrain.

If your child is struggling to readby age 6, you will need to rule-out

the following problems: eyesight(optometrist), hearing (audiologist),and processing skills includingauditory, visual, attention, memory,and language, at a specializedlearning center. The keys to asuccessful remediation programbegin with correctly identifying weakprocessing areas with a specializedprogram to correct them. This willallow your child to rediscover hispotential and restore condence inhis ability to read and learn.

mmer is nally here, and goinghe beach is one activity thatt kids love. I suggest heading

Morro Bay, to enjoy the beachone side of the Rock and theutiful view of the bay on theer side. When you pack up forr trip, be sure to bring this articleut historic Morro Bay fun.

me start with the island. Yes,ne time Morro Bay had its own

nd. The island I am referring toMorro Rock. For thousands ofrs, Morro Rock was an island. Attide, some people would try toe across the water that wouldup to their armpits or theyld hop in a row boat to have aic along the shore of the rock.asnt until 1933 that the Works

gress Administration (WPA)ted the Rock to get materials to

d a road from the mainland toRock.

you take that ride out to thek, realize that the road youdriving on is built of layers and

rs of rock and dirt that camectly from Morro Rock. I couldon and on about the Rock, butve other places in mind for yousit.

n around and head back on thebarcadero, check out all of therist stores, and make your wayto Morro Bay Blvd (MBB). Asdrive up and down Morro Bay, you are traveling though the

rt of the city. Morro Bay Blvd

was once called 5th Street, whenmost of the streets were numberedor lettered. It might be a good ideato park the car near the Bank ofAmerica on Morro Bay Blvd. Letswalk up the street until you get to400 MBB, which is currently leasedby a nice little resale boutique calledThreads.

What you are standing in front ofwas the rst real ice cream shopin town. It was called Morro BayCreamery and the name wrappedthe building in really cool neonlights. The huge windows in frontenticed all the kids in town to lookin and try to convince their parentsto take them in for an ice cream. Iused to work with Dan Stanley atMorro Elementary School, and heremembered going in this place asa kid with his buddies to spend all

of their money at the Creamery onmalts and hot fudge sundaes.

Heres another little bit of triviaabout the little building next doorto Threads. Today, at 410 Morro BayBlvd is a business called Castaways,but in 1960 a person would comedown to 410 to play pool becausethis was the Morro Bay RecreationCenter Pool Hall. Its funny that in1960, pool halls were great fun forthe people in Morro Bay, but in 1957there was a big controversy in townabout pinball machines.

In 1957, a pinball arcade openedabout two blocks from MorroElementary School. Parents gottogether and formed a committeeto ask the Board of Supervisors tooutlaw the evil machines. Thecommittee feared that kids wouldspend their lunch money playingpinball instead of buying lunch.

Within three months, the arcadewas shut down. By January of 1958,all pinball machines were outlawedin San Luis Obispo County. Im prettysure its okay to play pinball in townnow, because my wife and I wentto Cool Cats restaurant the otherday and we didnt get busted forplaying an old Elton John CaptainFantastic pinball machine.

When you are standing in front ofthe old Creamery, look across thestreet and you will see a two-story

brick building. Today, John Ramosart gallery displays his paintings atthis very historic location. This isone of the oldest buildings in town,and it has a wonderful history. Thebuilding you are looking at wasbuilt in the 1910s or 1920s and wasthe city post oce. It was run byPostmistress Lillie Anderson.

The Post Oce was on the left sideof the building and the AndersonDry Goods store was on the rightside. At some point in the 1950s, theowner of the building decided to

cover up the second oorwith a giant billboard. Sevago, after a major buildinthe owners decided to dothing and restore the buildoriginal design.

Now lets cross the streecorner of Morro Bay

Monterey, (originally 5tand C Street) is Jug Liquhave been there for a lobut if you look at this loca few minutes, you may bimagine the gas station once at this location. Moold postcards I have of MBlvd show Richeld gas the corner. You can imgas pumps in the middleis now the parking lot. tobacco store was also pgas station.

The next place to visit is to Jug Liquor. Today iCentral Coast Music, but one time the towns rst rtheater. If you walk in, back of the business and yoa very cool stage where plalso be performed.
