@Mom2aphysicsgeek, I’m going to have to try that then, not so much for speed but to see if it helps with comprehension. Thanks for sharing. Maybe the reason that speed reading didn’t work for my husband is that he was plopped in front of a machine and didn’t get any reading interventions.
@patertrium, I think I’d supply him with as many science related materials as I could, read them myself, then ask him about them. That’s one of the things I do with my daughter and I think it helps. It takes time on my part because I have to keep up with her reading as well as my own, but we’ve had some great conversations.
