They stop and stare at the page. 
Their brain is probably hard at work, but after 5 seconds they still can't figure it out! You don't have to just tell them the word-- there's a better way. I love how much this method builds a readers' confidence!

Is your reader at the very first stages? How to Teach Your Grownup to Read is a picture book you can read with your child where you'll BOTH get comfortable with 5 important reading skills: 1 to 1 correspondence, self-monitoring, searching for clues, looking at the picture, and familiar reading. Better than a handout and something I wish I could have given my students when I was a 1st grade teacher. Just snuggle up and read together with the BEST illustrations by James Koenig!
