Summer Challenge....READ!


The “summer slide” and research about summer reading losses are two of the reasons that Scholastic has create the Scholastic Summer Challenge. As always, Scholastic has created tons of fun for kids as well as great resources for parents and teachers.

Stop the “Summer Slide”Research shows that by reading four or five books during the summer, elementary students can avoid read achievement losses that normally occur over those months. The “summer slide” and research about summer reading are two of the reasons that Scholastic, Inc., is joining forces this summer with The National Center for Summer Learning (Johns Hopkins University) to present the Scholastic Summer Challenge.
