Summertime,
And the livin' is easy …
(George Gershwin)

- At least one book read should have Judaic content.
- Students will complete a reading log for all the books read this summer.
- Students will also complete a project on 1 of their books and a book report on a 2nd book. Details about projects, book report forms, reading logs and suggested book lists are linked from the bottom of this page. Just click on the class your student is entering in the fall.
- Projects, book reports and reading logs will be due back at school the first week of school in September 2008.
- Students may choose their reading books from the grade-level lists (click on class links below). Students may also choose books that are not on this list but are age appropriate. All books should be age appropriate and parent-approved. Consider books about places you may be visiting this summer, as well as books that match your child’s interests.
