7. An Analysis of Home Reading Habits
Because I read every night for at least 30 minutes, I was able to increase the amount that I read. I read at a steady rate. I read for a few minutes after supper before I started my homework. I also read before I went to bed. I read for about 10 minutes while I was eating breakfast as well.I Sometimes I was able to read more , especially on the weekend.
