At Genius International School of Singapore (GISS), Phnom Penh, reading is more than just an academic skill—it’s a gateway to lifelong personal growth. To instill a deep appreciation for books, the school dedicates 15 minutes every morning to silent reading.

This intentional practice helps students build vocabulary, strengthen concentration, and sharpen critical thinking skills, all while setting a calm and focused tone for the day ahead.

Why Daily Reading Matters

By giving students this daily space for reading, GISS not only enhances their academic performance but also nurtures qualities that extend far beyond the classroom:

  • Expanded Knowledge: Books open doors to new worlds, cultures, and ideas.

  • Enhanced Creativity: Reading stimulates the imagination and encourages innovative thinking.

  • Stronger Focus: Starting the day with a quiet reading period helps students transition into productive learning.

  • Improved Communication Skills: Exposure to diverse language and storytelling structures boosts both writing and speaking abilities.

Encouraging a Lifelong Habit

Research shows that children who read regularly develop better comprehension skills and a stronger love for learning. GISS is committed to making reading an enjoyable and valued part of daily life for its students, ensuring they carry this habit into adulthood.

The school fosters this culture through curated book selections, a welcoming reading environment, and consistent encouragement from teachers.

Building a Community of Readers

This reading initiative also serves as a shared experience among students, creating opportunities for discussion, recommendation, and peer encouragement. Whether it’s a storybook for younger learners or a thought-provoking novel for older students, reading becomes a communal journey at GISS.
