At Back to School Night, teachers share what the year will look like, how the day is planned, their expectations. Parents are asked to stay involved and make sure their kids read every night, usual- ly for 20 minutes. And some do, and some try to most of the time, and some do sometimes, and some just don't. In reality, we're being asked to help teach one of the most important skills a person can learn in life – the ability to read and read well. I have to admit that I haven't always understood the risk posed by not reading well. This one seemingly taken for granted skill is life changing IF mastered early. In To Read or Not To Read - A Question of National Conse- quence, research shows several serious findings: • Employers now rank reading and writing as top deficiencies in new hires. • Deficient readers are more drop out before earning a high school diploma. • Poor reading skills are endemic in the prison population. Over 70% of inmates in America's pris- ons cannot read above a fourth grade level. Seventy-fiv e percent of state prison inmates, sixty- nine percent of jail inmates, and fifty-nine percent of federal prison inmates are high school dropouts. According to the Department of Justice, "The link between acad- emic failure and delinquency, vio- lence, and crime is welded to reading failure." Kathy Garcia likely than skilled readers to be out of the workforce. More than half of Below-Basic readers are not in the workforce today. • Deficient readers are far more likely than skilled readers to be high school dropouts. Seventy-four percent of students who fail to read profi- ciently by the end of third grade falter in the other grades and often So does reading for 20 minutes really make a difference? Yes, it really does. In What Reading Does for the Mind, two researchers studied how reading volume affects ability. The two crucial messages from their find- ings were: 1) it is difficult to over- state the importance of getting children off to an early successful start in reading. Those who read well are likely to read more, thus setting an upward spiral into motion; 2) We should provide all children, regardless of their achievement levels, with as many reading experiences as possible. Indeed, this becomes doubly imperative for those children whose verbal abilities are most in need of bolstering, for it is the very act of reading that can build those capacities. School conferences are just around the corner. Ask your teacher if your student is reading at grade level and if not, what plan you can create together. Reading every night is part of the prescription to prevent our children from missing out on future opportunities. It is mis- sion critical. they like to read at a level not too difficult. Ask them questions about the book, the characters, the plot, and pictures. Read out loud with your babies, toddlers, and older children of all ages. Have them read what Help them create their own mini-library with books from garage sales, book orders, used book shops. Read all kinds of materials including magazines, recipes, comic books, newspapers.
