Failed A Read Check

by on Jan.19, 2010, under Main Stuff

The average age at which children learn how to read is, for English-speakers, anywhere between four and six. By age seven, kids are supposed to be able to know how to read “for comprehension”, that is, to understand the words on the page rather than merely sounding them out without connecting them to the concepts. I started at three.

And now, twenty-seven years later, I had to take a very close look at the title of one of my Dungeons and Dragons manuals, because at first glance I thought it said Marital Power.
