These books are not to be used during the school year, but rather to be given to students to add to their home libraries and use in the summer months. We are in desperate need for multiple titles for all students in grades kindergarten through fifth. These books serve as a means of preventing the inevitable "summer slide." Studies have shown that students often come back to school in the fall reading an average of 2 levels behind from where they left at the end of the previous school year when they do not use the skills taught during the school year over the 2.5 month break. By donating to this project, you help hundreds of students get the materials they need to continue their learning and practicing their skills with books that not only interest them, but motivate them to keep learning even when out of the classroom. Providing these resources to our students has the potential of reducing the "summer slide" and increasing their reading abilities through the summer months and prepare them for the new school year come fall.
