Reading comprehension is a cornerstone of literacy for children aged 5-8, laying the foundation for their future academic success and lifelong learning. At this developmental stage, children are not only learning to read but also reading to learn. Therefore, fostering strong comprehension skills is essential for them to interpret, analyze, and engage with texts they encounter.

Parents and teachers should prioritize reading comprehension as it helps children develop critical thinking skills, enhances vocabulary, and boosts overall academic performance. When children understand what they read, they form connections between texts and the world around them, facilitating a deeper knowledge retention.

Acknowledging that understanding narratives or information requires skill development from listening and discussing stories to exploring new concepts in written form encourages active participation in the learning process. Providing a variety of texts, and engaging children in discussions, questions, and creative responses strengthens their ability to understand and respond to written materials.

Moreover, strong reading comprehension skills support confidence and motivation in reading, reducing the likelihood of challenges in later subjects. Ultimately, investing in reading comprehension for young learners promotes holistic development, nurturing a generation that values and enjoys reading. This not only benefits individual learners but also contributes to a more literate society.
