Reading for Fun | Teacher Talk
In the Teacher Talk segment Part II: Science of Reading, we discussed the 2023 Nation’s Report Card data that showed that only 14% of 13 year olds said that they read for fun “almost every day” – which is down 13% since 2012 and also the lowest number ever recorded in this data. However, those students who reported reading for fun every day scored the highest on the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) assessment. And, all students who scored in the 75th percentile or higher reported reading for fun at least once per week.
