They never did tell us who the Reading Bug was!

Wow, did we have a busy summer. So busy that I am behind on posting photos of our SRC prize winners! We've had a lot of fun with our theme of "Catch the Reading Bug" and children are still coming in and asking for books on bugs!

Everyone did a great job over the summer, and now it looks like kids are bringing in their required reading lists to get ready for school. We're really proud of everyone for all their great reading! I hope that your kids had a fun time. I only heard one complaint: "They never did tell us who the Reading Bug was!"

Awesome job, Isaac!

Way to go Paul!

Congratulations Gabby!

Another winner!

Congratulations Rosa!

Summer Reading makes a difference!

The president of the International Reading Association has written an article in Reading Today for teachers on how to help close the summer reading gap. In addition to the reasons why Summer reading is so important, she suggests some simple tactics for sharing books, especially when you may be short on time.

More Summer Reading Club winners!

Oooh, more raffle winners! For every book each Summer Reading Club member reads, they get a raffle ticket and can choose which prize basket they want to take a chance on. Below are the smiling faces of this week's winners! Congratulations everyone!

Congratulations, Lydia!

Way to go, Ben and Nasim!
