"Boys continued to trail girls by substantial margins in reading and writing on the annual Connecticut Mastery Test. The pattern has persisted since Connecticut first started keeping track of scores by gender in 2000, and is consistent with longstanding patterns on national tests."
Reading to them every day (before they can read) might help, which we do with Mr. Boy, and keeping a journal which his teacher made all of them begin last year in Kindergarten, altho Mr. B. filled his with more drawings than words.
