1 Dear Parents and Students: City School District of Albany High School Summer Reading List and Writing Assignment 2010 Summer shouldn t mean taking a break from learning, especially reading. High school reading demands a high level of comprehension in fiction, non-fiction, narrative texts, textbooks and much more. Studies show that most students experience a loss of reading skills over the summer months, but those who continue to read actually gain skills. Efforts should be made during the summer to help sustain reading skills, practice reading and read for enjoyment. This summer, students entering grades 9-12 will be required to choose a non-fiction title from the lists below. Honors students are required to read an additional selection of fiction along with the required non-fiction title as outlined. Students entering World Literature, IB, and AP are required to read the two selections of fiction listed for those particular courses. ALL students will complete a writing assignment or assignments as outlined in this brochure. These required summer-reading books are available at your public library, high school library and local bookstores. Although students have a required summer reading, we recommend they read additional books of their own choice to keep them reading all summer. Your encouragement and support of your son s/daughter s reading will go a long way toward helping us meet the student-learning goals that we all share. Enjoy your summer and enjoy some terrific reading! Secondary ELA Supervisor Margaret E. DiGiulio
