kids reading books on a bench

When children are allowed to choose their own books, they read more and develop lifelong reading habits and strategies. Cuando pueden escoger sus propios libros, los niños leen más y forman costumbres y estrategias de lectura que les servirán durante toda su vida.

Reading isn’t always a quiet activity! Kids need to talk before, during, and after reading to develop comprehension skills. La conversación puede dar vida a la lectura. Los niños tienen que hablar antes de, durante, y después de leer; eso facilita la comprensión.
