How to Support Your Child • The length of the test requires students to maintain attention on reading for approximately two hours. • Most children are not prepared to read for such an extended length of time. • Students need to build reading endurance and stamina. • Encourage your child to read at home for a minimum of 30 minutes daily. • Talk to your child about what they are reading to ensure they are actively reading for meaning.
