<div class="edit">Reading is the single most important thing you can do during the summer months to help retain and improve the reading skills that have been developing throughout the school year.&nbsp; In fact, “studies show that most students experience a loss of reading skills over the summer months, but children who continue to read will gain skills” (www.readingrockets.org, 2022).&nbsp;To that end, please make a concentrated effort to read 20-30 minutes each day this summer.&nbsp; Take advantage of programs offered at the Valley Community Library and check out the following resources for additional reading lists, resources and summer reading challenges:Summer Reading Tips for Parents<a href="https://www.readingrockets.org/article/summer-reading-tips-parents">https://www.readingrockets.org/article/summer-reading-tips-parents</a>Lackawanna County Library System-Kids’ Resources<a href="https://lclshome.org/kids/">https://lclshome.org/kids/</a>Beanstack:Reading Challenges and Personalized Recommendations<a href="https://lclshome.beanstack.com/reader365">https://lclshome.beanstack.com/reader365</a>Scholastic Kids-Home BaseFree<a href="https://kids.scholastic.com/kid/homebase/">https://kids.scholastic.com/kid/homebase/</a>Recommended Books from ALSC:<a href="https://www.ala.org/alsc/publications-resources/book-lists">https://www.ala.org/alsc/publications-resources/book-lists</a>Project Gutenberg: Free Ebooks<a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/">https://www.gutenberg.org/</a><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AZ1th-tDbXPZyb3WjxBY_7hwU0Chq1a_qbybH-vuNFw/edit?usp=sharing">Summer Reading Challenge</a><a href="https://imaginationsoup.net/summer-math-activities-for-kids/">Summer Math Activities for Kids</a><div> </div><div><div class="edit"><h3>Read Works Summer Reading&nbsp;</h3><div>(create a free account using school Gmail) </div><div> </div><div><div class="edit"><a href="https://www.readworks.org/summer-reading?campaignId=summerpackets&amp;source=email" target="_blank">https://readworks.org/</a></div></div></div> </div></div>
