1 Dear Middle School Students and Families, Summer is a season of relaxation and family time; yet, it is also a time in which students may forget what they have learned the previous school year. In order to avoid this, Middle School students will participate in summer reading. What is the purpose of summer reading? - Maintain critical readings skills over vacation - Encounter literature that one might not read during the academic year - Experience the joys of independent reading What are the expectations for summer reading? - This summer you will read TWO novels. o o For the first novel, you must select a title from your rising grade level list. For the second novel, you may choose any age-appropriate novel that is approved by Ms. Lynch. Included in this packet is an extensive list of pre-approved novels from which you may choose, or you may read another book from your rising grade level list. If you would like to read a book that is not on the list, you must seek approval from Ms. Lynch. Credit will not be given if a student reads a book that was not approved. Please do not select a book you have already read. - Complete the Summer Reading Note-Taking Guide for each novel. You may use additional paper if necessary, please attach to the note-taking guide if used. Each note-taking guide will be worth one quiz grade for first trimester. o PLEASE NOTE: The Rising 6 th Graders have a different note-taking guide from the Rising 7 th and 8 th Graders. - During the first few weeks of school, you will complete an additional assignment about your second novel choice. Can students read more than two novels this summer? - Absolutely, students are encouraged to read as many novels as they would like. How can parents help their children complete this assignment? - Set aside designated time to read that will not interfere with summer plans. - Encourage your child to read novels that he/she will find interesting. - Read together. There are many new Middle Grades books that adults find entertaining as well. - Check your local library to see if they carry an audio and printed copy of your child s selected Summer Reading novel. Often times, it helps students to see and hear the author s language. Critical reading is one of the most important academic skills that will benefit your child in all content areas. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions regarding this assignment or suitable reading material for your child. Thank you for your support of this initiative. Ms. Emilia Lynch Ms. Emilia Lynch Middle School English elynch@jpii.org
