Schools are able to determine as early as preschool/kindergarten how your child’s reading skills can impact their future success.If you notice there are certain concepts your child struggles with (identifying letters, letter sounds, blending/reading words,) please do not wait to intervene and expect a miracle to happen over night!
“A child's ability to read “on grade level” by third grade is often a key indicator of future academic success.”
“Research from the University of Chicago found that for 85-90% of poor readers in the K-12 setting, prevention and intervention programs implemented before the third grade can increase reading skills to the average level. However, if intervention is delayed until age 9, about 75% of children will continue to have difficulties learning to read throughout high school and into adulthood.”
