[blindkid] reading rates

[Carol Castellano]

Arielle, Heather, Dave, and any other Braille readers out there,

You gave your own reading rates.  What sort of material did you use 
to measure this?  Did you do a 5-minute test?  Or did you simply time 
yourself reading an article or something like that?  As I read more 
and more about this issue and reading rates in general, I see that 
there are many ways to measure.  For example, if a person is reading 
for pleasure the rate will be faster than if he/she is reading to 
learn something.

Thanks,
Carol
