Here Comes the Summer!

Happy June!
Well, we are closer to another year of school closing as June rolls around. Although I am currently teaching English, I previously taught Reading and am an avid reader myself. Therefore, I would love to instill in each of my students the love of reading that I have had since I was very young. I can't stress enough the importance of reading for pleasure. When summer comes, many people turn their thoughts to vacations, free time, sleeping in, and time with friends. How about this summer, you take some time and read a book? I would encourage each and every one of you to pick up a book this summer and really ENJOY it. Find something that interests you. Find a book on a topic you're interested in learning more about. Find a book that helps you learn a hobby. Find a book that you will actually read. Find a book!! If you need help finding something to read, let me know. I would be happy to help you find something. Come on now, you have to read at least one book for your summer reading requirements anyway, so you might as well find something that you will enjoy reading. Plus, if you don't believe me when I tell you that reading helps you to become a better student, take a look at the link I have posted about Summer Reading.

Happy reading!
Mrs. E :)
