It’s time for school again! Most schools require students to read about 20 minutes a night. I have my own rule for my fourth grader. He has to read two chapters. That way he’s not using the time to look back and forth on the page while daydreaming. Yes, he’s been known to do that. Know your child and if necessary put your own rules into place. It is our lack of interference that makes it easier for our children to blow off their reading assignments.
Also, even though they are required to read every night, it doesn’t hurt to try to read with them once a week. It helps gage their progress.
