International Read To Me Day

Every year on March 19th, children are encouraged to read to them. The day also encourages children to participate in the discussion of their own literacy.

You may have noticed that raising a child takes a village. Anybody in a child's village is encouraged to read to them on International Read to Me Day. This could be a parent, grandparent, librarian, mentor, older sibling, or a neighbor of the family. It doesn't matter who does the reading. Anyone in the child's neighborhood reads to them on a daily basis, which is all that matters. The fact is that no one in the child's village reads to them.

Children who read to 3 to 4 times a week have reading ages that are six months younger than those who only read to once or twice a week. Every day, reading to children nearly doubles their growth. This means that these children are one year ahead of other children... Reading assessments can help children learn to read or read themselves, which can help them do well on reading assessments.
