In response to this question: "Can you shed any light on the thinking behind the mandate?"
One of the reasons for this push is that each subject content area has its own type of reading -- reading scientific research, for example, and the th inking is that students need to be exposed and learn to read for informatio n at a much earlier age. That those skills need to be steadily built so th at in upper grades and beyond the student is able to independently "read to learn."
