Ep. 236 Revisited | The Death of Reading
About this episode
Phil Black discusses the importance of fostering a love for reading in children and shares strategies to prevent them from becoming non-readers or anti-readers.
In this week's podcast, I urge parents to do whatever they can to help their children become avid readers. In my opinion, a student's academic upside (e.g. GPA, SAT, AP, college acceptances) is highly correlated to their relationship with reading. This relationship comes in three stages: Stage 1: avid reader Stage 2: non-reader Stage 3: anti-reader My four sons have fallen into all three categories. Learn the strategies and tactics I've used to try to keep my sons out of Stage 2 and 3. Some successful, most unsuccessful. Don't procrastinate in listening to this episode. For many of us, the window of opportunity to influence this relationship is closing quickly.
