Question

How can I boost a five-year-old’s interest in reading and writing?

Answer

Based on the description, it seems the child can understand conversations but faces difficulties in reading and writing. This might be a reading and writing disorder rather than an intelligence issue. If it is a reading and writing disorder, it’s recommended to start from the basics and teach step by step. You might find inspiration from the movie “The Earth Is Not Round” to help. I hope this suggestion can be of assistance to you.
