The Declining Art of Reading

The declining art of reading is a major concern to Teachers, Parents, Government and society as a whole.

Reading ability brings a wide range of important skills children are not able to recognize for themselves at an early age, which is why we must all encourage and help children enjoy stories which leads to a desire to read.

Reading seems old, uncool and out of date to many children, especialy when TV soaps are the rage, however reading skills bring great benefits, these include:

Improving the use of language and understanding
Enabling access to daily information (eg: notices, internet, printed news, leaflets)
Helping indivuduals be more self reliant (eg: self teaching from how to manuals)
Improving employment prospects and success
