Oh my goodness!! There is only 2 weeks left to finish summer reading, turn in your folder and get your backpack!
One activity you can do in the Choose 5 categories is to read to a child and help them finish the kids' summer reading program. Reading aloud to kids is one of the single most important things you can do to help jazz kids about reading on their own! So, pick up that old Amelia Bedelia classic you loved as a kid, or was it Where the Side Walk Ends, Where the Wild Things Are, or The Cat in the Hat? Whatever your favorite, ask a younger kid if they've finished summer reading and if they haven't...offer to read them a book to get them one step closer to being a summer reading winner.
What was your favorite book from your younger years? Who read it to you or did you read it by yourself?
Voice your opinion for the TSR2

My favorite book as a kid was Rikki Tikki Tembo. I remember my teacher reading it to me in first grade. I loooooved that kid's name and wished my name was longer.
i think reading to children younger than me because it gets them into reading and teach them that reading can be fun
My fav books from when i was young would have to be any fox book like Fox on the Job or Fox in Love.
i love reading. the new teen summer reading program really got me into reading this summer! i have already read 10 novels. i read to my younger sister so she could finish her ten books! honestly, i cant remember my favorite book as a kid. nobody read to me when i was younger except my teachers so i wasn't much into reading. only this year have i started. so i hope i changed that about my sister.
My favorite book was where the heart is. Even though it was not apart of the list but it is so very good. I hope other people would love it like I did. And I think this is a great way for us children to keep learning but not as much as the school year.
My favorite books were "There's no such thing as a dragon" and any James Stevenson book. (Especially the rain one) I still love those books; they're so funny!
all of the activities are easy. and my favorite book when i was young was cat in the cat
my favoeite book when i was a kid was cat in the hat. i remember when i read it every day
Reading to a younger child will help them with thiers reading program and help us with ours.
My fav book as a kid would have to be the fox trot books. i still like reading the sunday paper just for that strip.
My favorite book as a kid was "Love You Forever". My mom would read it to me all the time. We still have the book and my mom always wants to cry when she comes across it on the bookshelf.
I read to my 3 and 5 year old cousins in Maryland and they just loved it!! The five year old knows how to read on her own but loves others to read to her. I read My pony, an early beginner book but it was very creative and fun to read. I only get to see them on certain trips so reading to them was good family time right before they went to bed.
Read to a child was a great way to teach a child how to read.
it's a great way to help children read.
