Summer Reading
List

As you plan
summer
activities for
your students,
it's crucial
that you include
time to read for
understanding
and
appreciation.
Studies show
that students
who do not read
on a regular
basis over the
summer fall
behind in
reading
achievement.
This “Summer
Slide” can be
averted with
some careful
planning –
scheduling time
and selecting
engaging books
for summer
reading.
There is a
wonderful
resource called
Find a Book, GA
that parents of
1st through 9th
grade students
can use to
select perfect
titles for
engaging summer
reading for our
kids.
