Reading proficiency at the age of seven is crucial for children’s academic success and lifelong learning. At this age, children transition from learning to read to reading to learn. Mastering reading skills provides them with the foundation for comprehension in all subjects, as well as critical thinking abilities. Parents and teachers play significant roles in fostering this development by encouraging a positive reading environment at home and in the classroom.

Proficient readers can actively engage with texts, enhance their vocabulary, and develop their language skills, leading to better communication abilities. Additionally, good reading skills correlate with higher self-esteem and motivation in school. Conversely, children who struggle with reading may face increased frustration and disengagement, hindering their overall educational experience.

Moreover, reading proficiency can affect social-emotional development, casting a long-term impact. Restricting a child's literacy growth can lead to challenges in later grades, affecting academic performance and opportunities. Therefore, parents and teachers need to prioritize reading engage children through fun, interactive experiences, and access to a rich variety of reading materials, ultimately helping them become confident and competent readers who thrive both inside and outside of school.
