Why do we care about reading? Why do we work with students in K through 3rd grade? The grade is important here, because third grade is the year students move from learning to read — decoding words using their knowledge of the alphabet — to “reading to learn.” The books children are expected to master are no longer simple primers but fact-filled texts on the solar system, Native Americans, the Civil War. Kids who haven’t made the leap to fast, fluent reading begin at this moment to fall further behind.
