I agree with the above quote of Dr. Lynch. The rhythm is the most important thing . I find the same to be true with reading a score. Do not focus on trying to get all the notes. Focus instead on the rhythm, where the downbeat is. especially when playing with others ,it is simply more fun to be able to get through the piece together then to have to stop all the time for some pesky notes. You can actually practice sight reading at home. Start up the metronome and go through a bunch of things you've never seen before. Start slow and gradually move up the speed to where you start missing notes. As you continue kick up the speed slowly to keep challenging yourself .
