Quick Tips for Summer Reading

Notes from our Reading Teachers and Librarians


TO SUSTAIN READING SUCCESS
SUMMER READING IS VITALLY IMPORTANT


1. Have your child select library books they would like YOU to read aloud to them.


2. Visit a bookstore and the library to help your son or daughter select books.


3. Encourage your child to read in bed. Some parents even allow their children to stay up later if they are reading in bed.


4. Purchase an inexpensive camera and notebook. Have your youngster create a picture journal of summer experiences.


5. Lead by example. Show your children that you too, love to read books, magazines, and newspapers.


6. Enjoy the rich programs at the Wilton Library.
