[PW] ?Quote: learning to read/reading to learn

Tue Jan 15 14:30:03 PST 2008

Folks,

Does anyone know the source and the original quote of this, which may 
be a paraphrase?

"In the first three grades you learn to read, but from the fourth 
grade on you read to learn."

Is there an original quote? Or did this spring up out of the ground 
full-formed?

Thanks.
