Over 10% of the children in Ms. Lemley's fourth grade class are from homes of extreme poverty. What is the most likely effect of this level of poverty on these children's school achievement?

These children will likely lag three years behind children from wealthier families by the time they reach grade six.

Explanation:

Poverty is a negative factor when talking about a child's readiness for school. This is because it is capable of leading to poor motor skills and physical health of the child and also reduces the ability of the child to concentrate and retain information. Poverty can also reduce the curiosity, attention to education, and motivation of a child. Children from poor families lag in cognitive development and hence are likely to be three years behind those from wealthier families at grade six.
