What is a common issue for high-achieving readers?

  1. They often struggle with basic comprehension

  2. They may finish text or assignments quickly and become bored

  3. They frequently have difficulty with spelling

  4. They usually require additional instruction on phonics

The correct answer is: They may finish text or assignments quickly and become bored

The rationale behind the correct choice highlights a specific characteristic of high-achieving readers: their tendency to finish texts or assignments more quickly than their peers. Since they may grasp concepts and themes rapidly, they can experience boredom when the material does not pose a challenge or when it fails to maintain their interest. This can lead to disengagement in tasks that do not stimulate them intellectually. In contrast, the other issues presented do not generally characterize high-achieving readers. Struggles with basic comprehension, spelling difficulties, and the need for additional phonics instruction are more associated with readers who face challenges in their literacy development, rather than those who achieve high levels of reading proficiency. Therefore, the choice focusing on boredom from quick completion of tasks accurately captures a common issue faced by high-achieving readers.
