Summer reading is one of the most valuable ways to help kids retain knowledge and build on their skills while not in the classroom. It helps create lifelong readers while improving vocabulary, literacy skills, reading stamina, and more. Together with The Week Junior, we’ve created a bundle that includes a summer reading log, bingo challenge, and goals worksheet that are great tools to keep kids reading both inside the classroom and at home.
It’s a great idea to diversify reading choices over the summer to keep kids engaged. The Week Junior is an awesome way to expose your readers to current events through a kid-friendly, unbiased magazine. There’s something for every kid, with sections on sports, culture, movies, crafts, recipes, and so much more! Get a free issue of The Week Junior, and watch kids dive into this interactive reading resource.
