Following instructions reading is crucial for children aged 7-8 as it lays the foundation for several critical skills. Firstly, it enhances their ability to comprehend and process information. This age group is at a pivotal stage where they're transitioning from 'learning to read' to 'reading to learn,' and following instructions hones their attention to detail and listening skills.

Secondly, it fosters independence and confidence. When children successfully follow instructions, they realize they can complete tasks on their own, which builds self-esteem and encourages autonomous learning. This is particularly important for this age as they begin tackling more complex assignments.

Moreover, it cultivates discipline and organization. Understanding and adhering to instructions necessitate patience and the ability to sequence actions, skills which are invaluable in both academic settings and daily life. It also helps in developing problem-solving abilities as children learn to navigate challenges or clarify uncertainties they encounter via instruction following.

Lastly, following instructions improves social interactions and teamwork. Kids frequently work in groups during school activities. The ability to interpret and act upon instructions ensures smoother collaboration and helps in building respectful peer relationships.

In sum, fostering a child’s ability to follow instructions is integral to their academic success and personal development, making it a key focus for parents and teachers of children aged 7-8.
