Junior High Reading Ideas
Junior High Students and Families:
We hope you have a fun, adventurous, and relaxing summer. Take some time to read, too. Below are a few summer reading tips, and a PDF link to some books you may be interested in reading while you are away from school.
Ten Tips for Summer Reading:
Read by flashlight on a camping trip
Read the same thing as a friend, classmate, neighbor, sibling, or parent so you can talk about it with them
Set a goal for yourself of reading a bit each day, and if you miss a day, forgive yourself and start another reading streak
Join a summer reading challenge from the city library, county library, PBS Kids, publishers like Scholastic, or a local bookstore
Go outside and read in the sunshine
Read a book that takes place during the summer
Try to switch up the type of reading material you use: Books, magazines, newspapers, graphic novels, comics, and so many more
Practice your skills by reading aloud to someone younger than you
Read a book from a genre you don’t usually read
When you travel, read a book that has a setting in the place you are going to
Please see this list for books that might interest you and connect to your Junior High literature experience:
Have a relaxing summer! We are excited to see you in the fall!
