Brain Development
Poverty is Poison
Researchers estimate that before ever entering kindergarten, cognitive scores for children of low-income families are likely to average 60 percent lower than those in the highest socioeconomic groups, something that remains true through high school.
Lee & Burkam (2002)
Access Matters
Children in middle- and high-income homes have on average 13 books per child.
Children living in poverty have on average 1 book per 300 children.
Nueman and Dickinson (2006)
Meaningful Impact• The single most significant factor influencing a child’s early
educational success is an introduction to books and being read to at home prior to beginning school. (National Commission on Reading, 1985)
• The only behavior measure that correlates significantly with reading scores is the number of books in the home. (McQuillan, 1998)
• An analysis of nearly 100,000 U.S. school children found that access to printed materials is the "critical variable affecting reading acquisition." (McQuillan, 1998)
• The most successful way to improve the reading achievement of low-income children is to increase their access to print. (Newman, et al., 2000)
• Creating a steady stream of new, age-appropriate books has been shown to nearly triple interest in reading within months. (Harris, 2003)
Produces Results
• By the age of 2, children who are read to regularly display greater language comprehension, larger vocabularies, and higher cognitive skills than their peers. (Raikes et al., 2006)
• Children who live in print-rich environments and who are read to during the first years of life are much more likely to learn to read on schedule. (Southern Early Childhood Association, 2009)
• Children who are read to at least three times a week by a family member are almost twice as likely to score in the top 25% in reading compared to children who are read to less than 3 times a week. (Denton & West, 2002)
