Reading proficiency is crucial for children aged 6-9 as it forms the foundation for future learning and academic success. This period is known as a critical developmental phase where children transition from "learning to read" to "reading to learn." When children develop strong reading skills early, they gain the ability to understand, process, and engage with new information across all subjects. This proficiency impacts their overall academic performance and fosters a positive attitude towards learning.

Moreover, reading proficiency influences cognitive development, including vocabulary acquisition, comprehension, and critical thinking skills. Children who are proficient readers tend to perform better in various subjects, including mathematics and science, because they can easily grasp word problems, instructions, and content.

From a social perspective, strong reading skills enhance communication abilities and self-expression, enabling children to navigate social interactions with greater confidence. These skills also support emotional development; children can explore diverse situations and feelings through stories, promoting empathy and cultural awareness.

Investing time and resources in promoting reading proficiency from an early age ensures that children have a solid academic foundation, are better prepared to face future educational challenges, and develop a lifelong love for reading. Parents and teachers should, therefore, prioritize reading activities, celebrate milestones, and provide a rich, supportive environment to enhance children's reading skills.
