Tips for Encouraging Summer Reading
1. Make sure your kids have
plenty of books. There are two public libraries
nearby: Sweetwater (in the Threadmill) and South Cobb
(Clay Road and Floyd Road intersection).
2. Always pack up books when
you go somewhere.
3. Encourage social reading
- Start a book club, or see a movie based on a book, and also
read the book.
4. Try not to get hung up on
whether or not your child "could" be reading more advanced books.
Kids turn to reading as an escape, just as adults do. If kids
find reading enjoyable they'll keep reading and push themselves.
5. Try to keep some time
available for reading.

information to come home. Please keep reading over the summer!
