Please take a moment to click here and read a great article on “How Reading 20 Minutes a Day Impacts your Child”, and join us as we prepare to launch a schoolwide reading initiative.
“Educators have long said reading makes people smarter, and there’s research backing them up. A recent study conducted by the American Academy of Pediatrics found reading to children of any age wakens a number of regions in the left part of the brain. The areas in the brain that become active involve understanding the meaning of words and concepts tied to memory.”
