Durante el año escolar 2020/2021, la biblioteca estuvo cerrada para la salida. En cambio, cada clase participó en una sesión de biblioteca en línea de 30 minutos en una rotación de dos semanas. Durante este tiempo, los estudiantes hablaron sobre los libros que leyeron, discutieron el tema actual y las actividades proporcionadas dentro del documento y escucharon un libro orientado a temas que se les leyó a los estudiantes. Todas las actividades fueron opcionales y, con suerte, proporcionaron un tiempo agradable en familia lejos de la computadora.

Why Children Should Read 20 Minutes a Day and How This Impacts Your Kids’ Development – At Any Age

Are children and teens really reading less than they used to? It appears so. Studies show that less than 20% of teens in the United States read for pleasure. Yet they spend more and more time on social media or gaming, with the average eighth-grader spending four hours a day gaming, texting, and online browsing. Of course, it’s hard to get your child or teen to curl up with a good book for hours — there’s just so many other fun things to do. But you might be pleased to hear that the benefits of reading just 20 minutes a day have been proven by research.

And that’s something we can all commit to, right? Click HERE to read the article.
