Importance of Summer Reading
Summer reading is an integral part of student learning. Studies show that children who read over the summer do better in school in the fall. Reading Rockets has a considerable amount of information and great ideas on reading aloud to your children.
One way to show the importance of reading is to be a reader yourself. Set aside time each day for reading, let your children see the pleasure you take in reading. It is a great time for students to read self-selected books for fun! Families can take advantage of both local summer reading programs and online reading promotions.
