The Incredible Benefits of Reading on Student Success
In the United States, only an average of about 79% of adults read well enough to be considered “literate.” Literacy being simply “the ability to read and write” doesn’t mean that 79% of adults can read and write proficiently; it only means that they can recognize words by sight and assemble letters to make words.
