First GradeWelcome to Summer Reading Success, a fun way to keep you and your child reading together through the long, hot summer days. Begin by reading the Tips for Summer Reading Success below. Then as your child reads each book have them write the title on the Books I Read this Summer list and complete the activity page for the book. At the end of the summer, sign your child’s list and send this to back to school with your child. But keep the books for your child’s collection.

Summer Reading Success

Child’s Name:______________________________________________________________________

School:_____________________________________________________ Grade:_______________

Tips for Summer Reading Success Set aside a time to read each day where everyone in the house is reading. Limit distractions by turning off the TV and computer. Read the newspaper, a book, or a magazine while your child is reading. Ask your child about what he is reading. Tell him about what you are reading. Provide many different materials for your child to read, such as books, magazines, comics, directions to a new game, or recipes. Go to the library to check-out books, audio books, or eBooks. Encourage your child to reread favorite books.

Reading with Your Child

Before Reading a New Book: Look at the cover of the book with your child and read the title. Then talk with your child about the book. Do you think this is going to tell a story or give information? What do you think the book is going to be about? Let’s look through the book before we read it and talk about the pictures. Do you want to read the book to me or should we read it together?Reading a New Book: It is important for your child to feel successful while they are reading a new book. If your child doesn’t know a word or is having a hard time reading, help her so she doesn’t get stuck and can keep reading. After Reading a New Book: Talk about the book with your child. What was your favorite part of the book? Tell me about a part of the book that surprised you. Does this book remind of you of anything? Were there any words or parts that were hard?After talking about the book, work with your child to complete the attached activity sheet.

Books I Read this SummerDirections: After you read a book, write the title of the book below. At the end of the summer, decide which book was your favorite and draw a star by the title.
