This skills are very important and it is like a stair case if you dont get to the first step you cant get to the next. it is always important to keep this in mind.

this is a great way of assessment.
the textbook at the high-school level requires dealing with a variety of viewpoints
multiple viewpoints, be able to analysis rather than just learn how to read. now the students are digging deeper into the books and reading between the lines not only the lines.

They will outgrow this stage! this is a phrase that we always hear from parents and from caregivers. why do we always want kids to outgrow a stage instead of helping them understand their behaviors or let them learn from this stage instead of just hopping that this stage will vanish soon. Every stage is child's life is important and it needs to be focused on, specially physiologically and emotionally.
