The Superintendent's 2009 suggested summer reading list is posted on this blog. Books were selected for K-2 and 3-5 grades. Students should check off the books they read and have their parents initial it. When the school year starts, students can bring this list to Mrs Yamashev. She will have a special prize for her summer readers.
Be sure to check your public library for these titles. If you want to buy the book, check with one of the many independent book retailers in Richmond. If they don't carry the book the can certainly order a copy for you.
For a list of independent retailers, including the ones who specialize in children's literature, click this link and search by your zip code.
(For every $100 spent at independently owned stores, $68 returns to the community through taxes, payroll and other expenditures. Think about that before heading to the nearest big box store or ordering online.)
Don't forget to take the AR test too. Mary Munford students get a special party for making their AR goal with books read over the summer.
Good luck!
