Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s): Summer is a wonderful time for children. It is a time of freedom, exploration and learning. Summer can be a time for children to enjoy reading and at the same time to practice skills learned in the classroom. It can be an opportunity to lay the foundation for a lifelong love of reading. It is important to remember that summer reading should be self-selected. Children should be able to read what they find appealing. Anything goes – books, magazines, newspapers. You can encourage your child to read in many ways. Stop by a bookstore and buy your child a paperback. Make regular visits to the Marlboro Public Library, where your child can join the Vacation Reading Club. Pack some books on a trip to the beach, or just relax at home and share a good book with the family. This list is intended to introduce you and your child to some of the best, most enjoyable books available. Don’t be restricted by this list. Use it with the understanding that it is not all-inclusive. Let your child feel free to choose books from different grade levels and to find other books by favorite authors.
Note to understanding the Lexile codes used on the list (more information about them is available at www.lexile.com): AD-Adult Directed, NC-Non-Conforming , HL-High-Low, IG-Illustrated Guide, GN-Graphic Novel , BR-Beginning Reader , NP-Non-Prose.
Have fun with this list and have a wonderful summer. Happy reading! Jaime Allen, Asher Holmes School Debra Dowd, Defino Central School Deborah Gullo, Marlboro Elementary School Susan Palmer, Frank J. Dugan Elementary School Brenna Greer, Robertsville Elementary School Michael Bowman, Supervisor of Curriculum Sashi Gundala, Supervisor of Media Literacy
