The LBBC's 2011 Summer Reading Book List

Summer is officially here. Hooray for hot weather, sandía, paletas, and fireflies! Our family is super happy to be done with school. But studies show that children often forget important math and literacy skills during summer vacation. What is your familia doing to maintain your child's skills this summer?

Most libraries offer a great summer reading program. Or you can find them online. MommyMaestra listed several great ones a few weeks ago. The LBBC recommends the Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge because in addition to great prizes, it also offers resources in Spanish for bilingual families.  

And to get you started (or to help you continue), the LBBC's 2011 Summer Reading Book List is now available for download.  It features new and classic titles in English and Spanish for newborns to young adults.

Don't forget to print off our BILINGUAL Reading Logs! They are listed in our sidebar under "Free Downloads."

Happy Reading!!
