READ, READ, READ!!!
It is very important to read 10 minutes everyday - including weekends. The easiest way to do it is to make it a bedtime routine.
In addition, parents should read at home. Children will model what they see!
Read aloud to them or share a book with them.
After you are done ask questions and discuss some parts of the book. What happened first, then, next and last?
Also help your child sound out words... using this reading strategy poster might help.

You can also have plenty of reading material available (i.e. visit your local library, magazines, newspapers, comic strips, brochures, and borrow-a-book will be starting mid October etc...) so they can read at any time.
Don't forget, turn off the t.v. and ... read, read, read!
