Summer Reading
Reading during the summer keeps skills sharp at any age, and choosing their own books is a great way for students to grow their joy of reading during school breaks. Reading out loud to younger children builds a solid foundation for literacy.
2026 Program
Hello Crocker Families,
Between June 11 - August 14, 2026, we are encouraging Crocker students to read at least five (5) chapter books, twenty (20) graphic novels, or twenty (20) picture books (for younger students).
If your child chooses very long, dense books (think Lord of the Rings), he or she may read fewer books. The overall goal is simply to read this summer.
Everyone who reads will get a prize even if it's just one book!
You may submit the form as many times as you like; every child who reads at least one book will receive a prize in the fall.
Have a wonderful summer!
Mrs. Long
