At the latest Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), Hong Kong ranked behind Russia and Singapore. However, shocking statistics show that only1 out of 10 parents read with their children at home, far below the global average of 39 percent. This negatively influences children's interest in reading, which is why only around 1/3 of children said they liked reading, placing Hong Kong 33rd in the world. A key takeaway is reading attainment of students who received extra tuition after school was NOT significantly different from those who had no tutoring, showing the deciding factor is the level of PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT at home.
Every month, we recommend a "book of the month" by our Hong Kong Kindergarten Specialist for fun reading and recommended activities between parent and child at home! Click Book of the Month: Waiting by Kevin Henkes to find out more. Stay tuned for Book of the Month tomorrow!
