  • 2016 Gr. 2-3 COMPLETE LIST.Pdf
    June 2016 A Message to Pingry Families, Fostering a love of reading is one of the greatest gifts we can give our children. The Lower School Library Summer Reading Lists have been developed to encourage reading and to guide our students with their book choices during the summer. Reading for pleasure during this time will continue the development of reading skills and instill a love of reading that will last a lifetime. We recommend that students read a variety of books from their reading list. Many different books, from challenging to easier titles, are listed. While specific book titles are suggested, students may read any title by the authors listed. The books are divided into fiction, nonfiction, poetry, folktales, and biographies and the titles are annotated to help in the selection process. We hope every child will find something on the list which will spark their interest in reading. The following information and resources can be found in this booklet: Postcards to the Library Program – Students send picture postcards to the Library letting us know the books they are reading and how they are enjoying their summer vacation. See directions for participation on the next page. Reading Log – Set a reading goal, and record the books read during the summer. Lower School Library Website – Check out the website for Summer Reading Lists and subscription databases for research and fun activities. Tumblebooks – An online collection of e-books, offering streaming read-aloud picture books, chapter books, and nonfiction, with related games and activities. eBooks – Check out and read eBooks from the collection, on your computer or mobile device.
