Literacy

Your child was sent home with books they have selected on their own to continue celebrating their literacy journey over the summer! We hope your child enjoys reading these optional books.

Students are encouraged to read daily throughout the summer to help them maintain the skills they have acquired during the school year. Please encourage your children to read a wide range of books, across many genres that might include fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and biographies, to name a few.

Book Lists

What are the ILA Choices Reading Lists?

Each year, the International Literacy Association releases three reading lists—Children’s Choices, Teachers’ Choices, and Young Adults’ Choices. These helpful resources are used not only to encourage young people to read, but also to guide book selection for school and classroom libraries. The books are selected by students and educators themselves. We invite you to join us as we celebrate these wonderful, must-read titles. We hope that they serve as a reminder that choice matters—and it can make all the difference.
