Do you still have your third grader read out loud to you?

Anonymous
I am curious whether it is still expected to have third graders read out loud at home on a regular basis. We had our DC do that in first grade and for a lot of second grade, but once they seemed to be in a good spot we backed off a bit (and DC started to push back on doing it).

DC reads quite a bit, but not sure if we are letting things slide too much on reading out loud.

They read recipes, mail, shopping lists, all kinds of random signs, etc. Not worried about it.

Almost never.

It is helpful. For someone reading well at 3rd, perhaps less than essential.

We do, but as a time to address speech issues more than reading.
