  • Turn Striving Readers Into Achievers
    2019–2020 MIDDLE TURN STRIVING READERS READER & INTO ACHIEVERS YOUNG ADULT ENHANCE YOUR READING PROGRAM CATALOG WITH LARGE PRINT WHAT’S INSIDE? LEARN HOW LARGE PRINT SUPPORTS LITERACY SEE HOW SUBTLE DIFFERENCES LEAD TO BIG ADVANTAGES FIND OUT WHICH TITLES MADE YOUR PEERS’ TOP PICKS DISCOVER HOW LARGE PRINT CAN ENCOURAGE STRIVING READERS When reading feels like a laborious process, young readers can become disengaged and discouraged. Make it less so with large print. At Thorndike Press®, we look for standout middle grade and young adult debuts, along with award-winning, tried-and-true classics. Among a collection of nearly 400 large print books and counting, we strive to achieve a mix of high-interest, popular titles available for self-selected reading, and titles that already have content or curriculum built around them. Large print provides striving readers with options. To avoid the stigma that can sometimes be associated with large print, the books have the same artwork on the cover as the standard print edition and are not labeled as “large print” on the cover. Many titles focus on diversity—recognizing the fact that young readers want to identify culturally with what they are reading. The bottom line is that striving readers want to read what their peers are reading. Why not augment your current print reading program by offering at least 10% of your collection in multiple formats? You can introduce young readers to the concept of large print with a multiformat display or read-aloud session. Explore this catalog to see all Thorndike Press has to offer.

  • Entering Grades K-5 Summer Reading 2021
    MONROE TOWNSHIP SCHOOLS Office of Curriculum & Instruction 423 Buckelew Ave. Monroe Township, NJ 08831 http://monroe.k12.nj.us June 2021 Dear Parents and Guardians, The goal of the Monroe Township School District is to support our students in becoming lifelong learners. The summer months provide the perfect opportunity to extend and enrich your child’s reading experiences. Reading a variety of titles by various authors will enable students to learn, explore, and discuss new ideas with others. Furthermore, students who sample multiple genres and authors begin to understand their reading preferences, thereby enjoying recreational reading. Our summer reading program supports our objective that all students become lifelong readers and learners. The lists on the following pages contain recommended titles by genre, recommended authors and recommended book series. Encourage your child to enjoy this inspiring literature in the following ways: silent reading, shared reading with a parent or older sibling, buddy reading, book clubs, and parent read aloud and discussion. To help your child select books, have them examine the covers and try reading a couple of pages. A “just right” book is one that is interesting to a child, not too easy, nor too difficult. Listening to audiobooks is also strongly encouraged for all readers. To help support your child’s literacy development, attached is a resource list detailing ways to read with your child, habits of good readers, and links to other resources. We encourage you to use the resources on the second page to further assist in book selection. This list is to assist you in selecting appropriate reading material for your child to read over the summer months, as well as promote high levels of learning during the academic year.
