My Project
Reading is important because it develops our thoughts, gives us endless knowledge and lessons while keeping our minds active. One key benefit of reading is the development of critical thinking skills.
Reading books increases your knowledge, enhances your inventiveness, builds your vocabulary, and generally makes you smarter.
Books improve vocabulary, the more you read the book, the faster your vocabulary will expand. Reading books can enhance the imagination and creativity of students and increase positive thinking.
An emphasis on reading and student literacy helps develop higher levels of focus and concentration. It also forces the reader to sort things out in their own mind – including topics that might not be familiar to them at all.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
