Summer Reading Assignments
Posted on June 12, 2013 @ 2:54 pm
Summer reading assignments are listed below for grades two through eight. Some of the reading assignments are detailed, so don’t wait until the last minute before school starts to get started on reading. Reading should be an important part of your student’s entire summer. When the summer sun is too hot for outside play, or you’ve been at the beach or pool all day, a good way for your student to relax is to get out a book and read.
