1 Tisbury Elementary School SUMMER READING LIST INCOMING FIRST GRADE Favorites Dear Families, June 2017 Pete the Cat and the Surprise Teacher by James Dean Summer vacation is almost here! We hope that you make it a time to REST, RELAX, READ, but above all ENJOY! Reading, like a sport, involves practice and skill. Real skill building occurs when children read for pleasure, when children read just right books, and when children can explore books about those topics that interest them. The more they practice with someone s encouragement, suggestions and praise (just like in a sport), the better and more confident readers they will become. Home by Carson Ellis We Are Growing! by Laurie Keller Here are some tips to encourage reading: Set aside a regular family reading and/or read aloud time. Read to your children, even the older ones. Recognize that your child s own choice and interests are important ingredients toward reading enjoyment. Let your child see you reading for pleasure. Don t forget to pack a book wherever you go this summer. Encourage and help your child succeed with reading but do not push or expect too much too soon. Participate in activities at the local library. Learn more about children s books from your child s friends, from the local library, or from the attached lists. Happy Reading! ** Bring in your Reading Challenge (last page) in September! Best wishes for a safe, happy, fun-filled summer of reading from: Ms. Burke and Mrs. Krauthamer and the first grade teachers of Tisbury School. Adapted from Waltham Public School s Summer Reading List. Images from amazon.com.
