    My son's teacher just did this and I approved it wholeheartedly. My son LOVES to read, he could read 5 books a day (chapter ones) if you let him.

    The problem is that intead of doing his classwork, he was reading. So now he can't read until the classwork is done. It made a huge impact on him.

    I agree it depends on the kid for sure.
