Reading opens the mind and the imagination. It is so sad that kids no longer want to read. The bottom line is, if you cannot read, you cannot learn.
I think I passed school only because I was an avid reader. In primary school I used to grab the newspaper before starting with homework and was also a member at the local library. As a result my general knowledge was exceptional.
In high school I never did any homework. I bunked school often in my snr years as I started to play in a band and was more interested in music and art. I did however, read all of my text books during the 1st semester, simply out of curiosity. Whatever we did in class was then revision for me.
