Summer of Reading

The Week Junior wants kids to enjoy reading all summer!

Reading for pleasure builds brain function, vocabulary, and concentration. Students who read for 20 minutes a day encounter 1.8 million words a year, significantly boosting their vocabularies.
It builds empathy and connects children to people and places beyond their experience. Research shows that 74% of kids say reading helps them understand the world.
It unlocks the door to learning for a lifetime. The key is to let children read what they want and to make it joyful and fun. Join in and see what happens!
