3rd Grade Reading Levels Predict Prison Growth

3rd Grade Reading Levels Predict Prison Growth

FOOD FOR THOUGHT. Invest NOW or later?

We must CONTROL the things we CAN CONTROL.



Did U know that a child that is NOT at 3rd grade reading level in the 3rd grade has a 10% chance of catching up to his or her peers?

Did U know that 90% of the human brain is developed by age 6 years old?

Did U know that preschoolers are SCREENED for literacy challenges?

This can be CONTROLLED IN OUR OWN HOMES.

My hubby and I used this tool back when our munchkins were 3 and 4. They are now age 5 and 6.

My 6 year old recently tested 94% accuracy on the 3rd grade level.
My 5 year old obtained an almost PERFECT SCORE on her literacy screening in preschool.

It only takes 1 hour a week to make a HUGE impact in our MOST IMPORTANT INVESTMENTS IN LIFE-OUR OFFSPRING.



WE CAN DO THIS!
