The 2019 L4LL Summer Reading Program is now live and available in the L4LL TpT store.
If you're looking for a summer reading program created by Latinas for Latino children, this one really is remarkable. It has undergone a lot of changes as we have strived to find the best way to make the program accessible to families and educators.
The program includes tons of printable materials and culturally-based activities for your children to do on a variety of themes. Take a look...
Our free BASIC Summer Reading Program
This consists of printable resources to help your kids have fun reading in English or Spanish during the summer. It contains:
• Our 2019 Summer Reading Lists
• Reading passport
• Reading logs
• Bookmarks
• Postcards
• Pledges
• Certificate of completion
You pick the materials that best suit your family’s/student’s needs.
Each year, we update our Summer Reading Lists to include new titles. You’ll only find Latino children’s literature on our lists as we strive to highlight this small – but important! – genre by Hispanic authors and illustrators. Choose books from our suggested 2019 reading lists of Latino children’s literature, or pick your own. Our program is easy, flexible, and fun!
ALL of the activity pages are available in English and Spanish.
Our Summer Reading CAMP
This is a 10-week DIY Summer Reading Camp with culturally-based activities to develop reading and writing skills. It is for children ages 6 to 12 years old and includes more than 100 activity sheets designed to boost literacy skills over the summer break, as well as additional tools for educators and students. The program also includes original reading passages and illustrations by Latino children’s authors Alma Flor Ada, F. Isabel Campoy, René Colato Laínez, and Lulu Delacre.
Each week covers a different theme:
- Art/Arte
- Family/Familia
- Folklore/Folclore
- Food/Comida
- Immigration & Heritage/Inmigración y herencia
- Music/Música
- Nature/Naturaleza
- Poetry/Poesía
- Sports/Deportes
- Summer/Verano
You can now buy the individual themes or save 10% when you buy the complete CAMP!
Again, all the activities are available in English and Spanish.
Happy reading!
