Summer reading is one of the most effective ways to help kids retain knowledge and continue building skills outside the classroom. It supports vocabulary growth, reading stamina, and literacy development, all while helping kids become lifelong readers. 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.
Diversifying reading choices over the summer helps keep kids engaged and motivated. 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.
