Summer Reading

With only two weeks left of summer vacation, it is time to start thinking about finishing up your SUMMER READING (cue dramatic music).

"But Ms. C, I did not get a Summer Reading list."
Well do not worry because I included the link to the Summer Reading list in this post:
Elementary Summer Reading List
The list includes many titles and authors for each grade. And such a variety! The list includes fiction, nonfiction, and biographies. There is something for every reader.

Need a suggestion? The Cloud Book (dePaola) and The Principal's New Clothes (Calmenson) are my favorites off the 1st grade list. I adore writers Beverly Cleary and Jon Scieszka and recommend their books for my friends in the 2nd and 3rd grade. And 4th and 5th graders are crazy about Andrew Clement's novels- A School Story, A Week in the Woods, and The Jacket are my favorites by Clement.

"Where can I find copies of the Summer Reading books?"
Our school library is open on Tuesday mornings from 8 to 11 during the Summer. Mrs. Durante will be more than happy to help you find the right book.

The Revere Public Library also has copies of the Summer Reading books. You can see what is available by checking out their OPAC.

If you want to buy your Summer Reading books, Barnes and Nobles in Saugus has the copies of the lists in the Children's Section as well as copies of the books.

Completing Summer Reading ensures you for a great start to the school year. It only takes 20 minutes a day to do Summer Reading. It is great practice for the Fall!
