Reading: How often does your child read? According to Scholastic, a child who reads 20 minutes per day is exposed to 1.8 million words per year and scores in the 90th percentile on standardized tests. A child who reads 5 minutes per day is exposed to 282, 000 words per year and scores in the 50th percentile on standardized tests. A child who reads 1 minute per day is exposed to 8, 000 words per year and scores in the 10th percentile on standardized tests. These are amazing statistics.
