Inspire your students to read during the holidays with a versatile reading challenge.

📖Prevent Summer Slide with a Reading Challenge

📗Reading is a crucial part of the school year, but what about during extended holidays? Sure, most students take time out to relax or visit family and friends – but why not encourage them to try some new books?

 📘Our printable upper-year Summer Reading Challenge gives you 25 different prompts to inspire children to read new books. From fantasy to classic literature, short stories to series books, graphic novels to chapter books, there’s plenty for everyone!

📙This print-and-go resource makes an excellent addition to those review packets that you send home every year. Staple this one right on top and challenge your students to read, read, read! 

Edit and Print for a Summer Reading Club Challenge

A team of dedicated, experienced educators created this resource to support your reading curriculum.

This editable resource file can be modified in many ways to meet the needs of individual students in your classroom. If you have a mixture of above and below-level learners, check out these suggestions for keeping students on track with the concepts: 

🆘 Support Struggling Students

  • Rather than having students complete the entire reading grid, turn it into a Summer Reading Bingo Challenge! Encourage students to earn a BINGO by completing five tasks in a row.

➕ Challenge Fast Finishers

  • Encourage fast finishers and avid readers to expand their reading challenge by reading more than one of each book type. You could also set a page minimum for those students as well.
