Parents and teachers should prioritize reading proficiency and writing skills in Grade 1 as these foundational abilities are critical for long-term academic success and personal development. At this early stage, children develop the essential skills that will support their future learning. Proficient reading and writing skills enhance a child's capacity to understand and engage with a variety of subjects. When children read well, they can extract meaning from texts, which is vital for subjects including math and science as well as literacy.

Being able to write proficiency allows Grade 1 students to express their thoughts clearly, share their ideas, and communicate effectively with others. Additionally, writing fosters creativity and critical thinking. By mastering these skills in the first grade, children build confidence, which promotes a positive attitude towards learning.

Furthermore, lacking proficiency in reading and writing can lead to struggles in later grades, making it challenging to keep pace with curricula. Early intervention and support in these areas can instill a lifelong love for reading and writing, setting the stage for success in school and beyond. Thus, parents and teachers play a crucial role as advocates for children's reading and writing development during this critical phase.
