Amy in CO Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 What is a reasonable number of pages to expect your 9th grader to read in a week? I am thinking mostly of history and literature. She loves to read, so that isn't a problem, I just don't want to overwhelm her by expecting too much. Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle in AL Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 For us it was about 100-200 pages/week. We have 1 book going for history and 1 for english, with about 100 pages each/week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenn in CA Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 (edited) I came up with 50 pages per day based on their (my kids') reading speed of 30-50 pp per hour. They read 3 days per week and write about their reading 2 days. So that's 150 pp/week. Edited July 25, 2009 by Jenn in CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy in CO Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 Okay, sounds like I am not that far off. I was planning on her reading 150-175 pgs a week, and then writing about it. Then my reading aloud to everyone about 100 pages a week. Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
