Summer Reading Program
Summer 2024
GENERAL INFORMATION
The 2024 Summer Reading Program is designed for students in Kindergarten through 7th grade who are experiencing difficulty with reading. During the program, teachers work in teams to teach small groups of children. They utilize a variety of approaches to address individual reading needs. Emphasis is placed on helping children become more fluent and strategic readers. Areas of instruction include phonics and spelling, reading fluency, comprehension and vocabulary, writing, and motivation. Special literacy activities, including author visits and book distributions, are part of the summer experience. At the beginning of the program, teachers assess children's literacy skills. At the end of the program, parents receive a brief, final report with program goals and activities, and a description of the child's response to instruction. The summer reading program is a wonderful, enjoyable experience for children and many return to the program in subsequent summers.
