This summer, send your first grade and second grade students off on new adventures with epic summer reading books. Help your students sharpen their reading skills and find new stories to love during summer break — and keep them engaged in learning as they transition to the next grade.
The summer slide, a regression in academic proficiency during the summer months, often impacts younger learners because they’re at a crucial stage in their development. The good news is that there are many ways to keep students learning — and having fun! — during the off-season.
Setting up your students for summer reading will motivate them to read for pleasure while their favorite stories will keep them coming back for more. Let the latest titles in popular series, such as Owl Diaries and Who Would Win, and beloved classics like Junie B. Jones kick off a summer reading adventure that will get your students well on their way to becoming lifelong readers.
