Dear Parents and Guardians,

     Reading should be a daily part of your child's summer activities.  Let your child read books that are enjoyable and that can be read with relative ease.  If a book is a chore, it may too difficult.  Reading independently and aloud, aid in maintaining important skills over the summer.  A list of suggested books on several levels are listed below.  Have your child take an active role in choosing books that interest them.  This is only a suggested list and all can be found at your local library.
     Please keep a list of books read on the sheet provided and return, with parent signatures, to your new teacher on the first day of school.  A good rule to remember is:  "Every minute of television should equal a minute of reading."

Have a blessed and safe summer!
Mrs. Young
