Junior High Literature and Grammar

Junior High Students!

I hope you have a fun, adventurous, and relaxing summer. Take some time to read, too. 

Ten Tips for Summer Reading:

  1. Read by flashlight on a camping trip

  2. Read the same thing as a friend, classmate, neighbor, sibling, or parent so you can talk about it with them

  3. Set a goal for yourself of reading a bit each day, and if you miss a day, forgive yourself and start another reading streak

  4. Join a summer reading challenge from the city library, county library, PBS Kids, publishers like Scholastic, or a local bookstore

  5. Go outside and read in the sunshine

  6. Read a book that takes place during the summer

  7. Try to switch up the type of reading material you use: Books, magazines, newspapers, graphic novels, comics, and so many more

  8. Practice your skills by reading aloud to someone younger than you

  9. Read a book from a genre you don’t usually read

  10. When you travel, read a book that has a setting in the place you are going to
