Research has proven that reading is the best way to do well in school.
In 4th Grade, reading for 40 minutes a night is required. The kids can read anything that they find interesting. They can read with you and for more than 40 minutes a day outside of school is totally great. The goal is to read in one sitting to help them gain stamina and focus. Talk to them about what they read or ask questions about the characters and plot. This leisure reading is very different than a textbook or academic work and it is fun to see what your child finding entertaining, inspiring, or intriguing.
