    [ Music ] >> Each year, thousands of booklovers of all ages visit the nation's capital to celebrate the joys of reading and lifelong literacy at the National Book Festival, sponsored by the Library of Congress and hosted by First Lady Laura Bush. Now in its eighth year, this free event held on the National Mall Saturday, September 27th, will spark readers' passion for learning as they interact with the nation's bestselling authors, illustrators and poets. Even if you can't attend the festival in person, you can participate online. These podcasts with authors will be available through the Book Festival website at www.loc.gov/bookfest, and you can find a whole suite of other materials there as well. [ Music ] I now have the honor of talking with the well-known children's author, Jon Scieszka. In addition to authoring The Stinky Cheese Man and other Fairly Stupid Fairytales, The True Story of the Three Little Pigs, and Smash Crash, which is part of his new Trucktown Series for young readers, Mr. Scieszka was recently named the first National Ambassador for Young People's Literature by Librarian of Congress James H. Billington. That position was created by the Library's Center for the Book, and the Children's Book Council, to raise national awareness of the importance of children's literature in fostering lifelong literacy and enriching the lives of young people. The recipient of several book award honors including the Publisher's Weekly Cuffies Award, and the Caldecott honor, Mr. Scieszka has also appeared on the Martha Stewart Show and NPR's All Things Considered.

  • Form I English Summer Reading Mr. Mcconnon the Purpose of Summer Reading Is to Continue to Build Students’ Reading Stamina, Fluency and Literacy
    Form I English Summer Reading Mr. McConnon The purpose of summer reading is to continue to build students’ reading stamina, fluency and literacy. To support these goals we require that all rising Form I students read three books they have not previously read (Red Kayak is required) and complete a reading log for each book they read. Please carefully follow the instructions below: • Read Red Kayak by Priscilla Cummings • Read two additional books from the reading list or the Reading Olympics book list. For a summary and preview of the books on the list go to Goodreads. Please let me know if you want to read a book that is not on the list. • Complete a reading log for the three books. • Print a copy of all three reading logs and bring them to class on the first day of school with your copy of Red Kayak Directions for Reading Log: • Write five journal entries for each book you read. • For each journal entry choose a significant passage. • Write the passage in your journal. • Record the page number on which the passage appears. • Explain the significance of the passage (Things to consider in your response: Why is the quotation important? What does the quotation show about the characters, setting, conflict, plot and theme? Can you make any text-text, text-self, text-world connections? Did you learn anything new from the passage?). • Please do not summarize the passage. • Journal entries should be equally spaced throughout the book. For example, if there are 15 chapters, you should journal approximately every 3rd chapter.

  • 6. Literary Analysis Essay- Write a 5-Paragraph, Formal Literary Analysis Essay That Makes a Point About Your Novel
    Highland Park School District Highland Park, New Jersey Incoming Grades 6, 7, & 8 Summer Reading Program 2014 Rationale: “Reading is Fundamental” The old commercial slogan echoes how significant reading is to the education of humanity. The goal of a summer reading program is two-fold; its primary purpose serves to further enhance the educational experience of the reader by supporting the reading and writing strategies utilized in classroom assignments throughout the academic year. The secondary purpose is to provide the students with an alternative method of learning, one that reaches far beyond the traditional structure in the classroom. While students remain grounded in studying literature of established academic merit, they nevertheless are presented with the opportunity of enjoying this material on their own schedules and are allowed the freedom of choice in selecting a book. Students Entering Grade Six Must Choose One Book from the Following Books to Read Over the Summer: The One and Only Ivan by Katherine Applegate Things Not Seen by Andrew Clements The Jacket by Andrew Clements Sahara Special by Esmé Raji Codell Castle Corona by Sharon Creech D’Aulaires’ Book of Norse Myths The Maze Runner by James Dashner No More Dead Dogs by Gordon Korman Attack of the Vampire Weenies by David Lubar* Hero by Mike Lupica Neil Armstrong is My Uncle & Other Lies Muscle Man McGinty Told Me by Nan Marino 11 Birthdays by Wendy Mass The Candymakers by Wendy Mass Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment by James Patterson Hatchet by Gary Paulsen The Red Pyramid

  • Walpole Public Schools Elementary Summer Reading Program
    Walpole Public Schools Elementary Summer Reading Program Dear Parents and Students: Research tells us that when students don’t read for two months their skills regress. Reading is a skill, which requires practice, just like sports or math facts. Summer reading helps students of all ages keep their skills sharp so they are ready when school begins again in the fall. Reading throughout the summer not only enhances basic reading skills of young students, it creates unique opportunities for learning, exploring, and growing. The Walpole Public Schools Elementary Summer Reading Program is designed to promote reading and learning as enjoyable activities. The following is a suggested guide to authors, resources and activities for children to share their reading experiences. Please choose any title that may interest you from any other sources. Magazines, graphic novels, audio books and eBooks also provide valuable educational experiences. We strongly encourage parents to read aloud, including to those children who are already independent readers. In addition to being a wonderful family activity, children increase their listening vocabulary, which improves their comprehension. It also allows them to develop interests beyond their reading levels. This summer there is one requirement: Students entering grades 1-5 are required to complete one sharing activity, which will contribute to the first term grade in literacy. The directions and pages for this activity are attached along with a summary and an example of the product. During the first two weeks of school in September, the children should return the assignment to their new teacher (by September 11); their projects will be displayed in their classrooms.

  • Discussion Guide
    Discussion guide ABOUT THE BOOk Inspired by the Guys Read initiative, aimed at hooking up young guys with books and the authors they love, Guys Read: Funny Business is a collection of ten hilarious stories from some of the funniest writers around. As Guys Read founder and collection editor Jon Scieszka says, “Your brain is doing some great work when it’s laughing,” so start working out your brain with this first volume in the official Guys Read Library. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS BEST Of fRIENDS by Mac Barnett Is it cool that Dean only wants to be friends with Ernest because of the Nesquik sweepstakes? What do you think about Ernest’s big lie to make friends? What should friendship really be about? What are your top three best commercials of the year? Describe them, like Dean describes his favorites. Then have your friends rank their top three and compile the results to determine the number one best commercial. WIll by Adam Rex Which would you most want to be—an alien, a demigod, a fairy, a superhero, a time traveler, a vampire, a witch, or a wizard? Why? So what if Will doesn’t have special powers—he has something else. What is that something? How does Will act heroically? ARTEMIS BEgINS by Eoin Colfer What is your assigned “boy band role” in your family? Why might it not be a good idea to elbow your baby brother down the stairs, even if it is to save him from DEFCON four? UnaccompANIED MINORS by Jeff kinney Do you have a younger sibling on whom you inflict psychological damage? Or are you maybe the younger one who gets picked on? Why do bigger, older kids prey on smaller, younger ones? Is it fair? Do younger siblings benefit in any way from being tortured? Explain.
