ATS Summer Reading Challenge Kickoff

Regular reading over the summer keeps their vocabulary growing, improves comprehension, and strengthens critical thinking. It also fosters a lifelong love of learning and curiosity, which is key for their academic success. Plus, it sparks creativity and imagination, broadening their understanding of the world. Overall, summer reading is a fun and effective way to keep young minds sharp and ready for new challenges!

We will provide recommendations to ensure every ATS Star completes this summers Reading Challenge by the first day of school.

Make Reading a Regular Habit:

• Read together daily: Even a short period of time, like 20-30 minutes, can make a difference. 

• Set a consistent reading time: Establish a routine, such as before bedtime or after dinner, to make it a regular part of your day.  Read as a family during this time.

• Incorporate reading into daily activities: Read labels at the grocery store, recipes while cooking, or instructions while building.
