Summer Reading!

Can you believe summer is right around the corner?  Just because school is over doesn't mean reading and learning should be, too! :)

"Decades of research confirm that summer learning loss is real. According to a report released last month by the RAND Corporation, the average summer learning loss in math and reading for American students amounts to one month per year. " came from the NY Times article "This is Your Brain on Summer"

I will be sending some information of reading recommendations from our librarian, as well as information on some fun summer reading programs.  If you child participates in one of these, please have he/she visit me in August for a special treat! :)

**Your child is bringing home a bookmark from this great program today!**
