My daughter is in Grade 11, she told me that for Grade 10 English, they didn't read all of Romeo and Juliet, they just did bits of it and watched some of the movie - is that all we think teens are capable of understanding? I don't get a sense there are many works covered in English class, not when I think back on my high school days to what we used to read. That said, she is doing more reading of her own at home - and so am I! I was always a big reader and currently belong to three different book clubs so I always have something on the go, trying to be the model here!

Out of all your suggestions, I really think kids seeing their parents reading is absolutely the one to prioritize!
