[quote=Anonymous]I always made sure my kids had plenty of books and remembered to take one to school for downtime. This worked until some point in middle school. Separately, I made sure I could help them find age appropriate books at the higher reading level. At their middle school, the teachers would sometimes require kids to read at their "personal" reading level. This can be hard when a 6th grader is reading at an 11th grade level because 11th graders are reading young adult or full adult fare. So, you may need to spend time on the internet finding books. Fostering interest in things like nature and hobbies can help because they will have a wider range of interests and then, hopefully, a wider willingness to read differing books.[/quote]
