A Look Ahead...
Summer Reading Program Ideas ~As the school year comes to a close, I encourage you to find a summer reading program with your child. Students can lose more than half of their school year gains during the summer vacation. Children who read during the summer months, however, can sustain their literacy levels and are better prepared for learning when school resumes in the fall. There are so many options when it comes to a summer reading program. First, don't forget about the District 96 summer reading program as outlined at this link. Mrs. Schumer has also put together a list of summer reading programs in the area to keep students reading all summer long. Click here to view her list. Thank you for your dedication and partnership in creating lifelong learners!
