Learning to read

When I was younger I used to love to read. So learning to read wasn’t rally that hard for me. I remember first having to sound out the letters and words which everyone has to do. I had to do these minute test every week that would require me to read a certain amount of words per minute.I also remember that I liked to read to get A.R points which were pretty much points you would get after reading the book and taking an online quiz on it. I think grades 1-5 was when my reading began to take off and then in 6 grade I began to lose interest in it. So I guess you can say that I enjoyed reading for an outcome not for pleasure.
