Dear Family,
It’s my pleasure to welcome you and your child to New York City Summer Rising! This summer, our class will be using Scholar Zone Summer to explore reading and writing. This reading program is based on leading research and decades of knowledge about what works best for kids. However, no one knows better or cares more about your own child than you! This guide is designed to help you support your child’s literacy development. Inside you’ll find information about:
▶ Literacy milestones for your child’s grade
▶ Scholar Zone Summer’s approach to reading and writing
▶ The topics we’ll be exploring in each unit throughout the year
▶ How you can support your child’s literacy development at home I hope you will share your own knowledge and insights about your child’s literacy life with me. What does he or she love to read about? What are his or her goals? Are there concerns you’d like to share? Looking forward to working together as partners this summer, and to watching your child soar!
Wishing you the best!
