Teaching reading proficiency to children ages 7-8 is crucial for their overall academic and social development. At this age, students transition from learning to read to reading to learn. Proficient reading skills are fundamental for understanding a wide range of subjects, including science, mathematics, and social studies. When children can read effectively, their vocabulary and comprehension skills improve, enabling them to grasp complex ideas and broaden their knowledge.

Parents and teachers should care about a child’s reading skills because these skills strongly influence future success. Research has shown that students who are not proficient readers by third grade are less likely to excel in later grades. This lag can affect their self-esteem and academic confidence, potentially leading to increased dropout rates and decreased job prospects later in life. Engaged and supportive adults can make a significant difference by providing children with the time and resources they need to practice reading.

Moreover, reading proficiency enhances critical thinking and creativity. Interacting with different texts allows children to experience diverse cultures, ideas, and perspectives, fostering empathy and a broader understanding of the world. By prioritizing reading proficiency, parents and teachers contribute significantly to a child's lifelong learning journey.
