Children received colorful Reading Rocks! Briargrove Summer Reading 2009 folders by grade just before school ended in May.  Inside were pages identifying various summer reading programs and their incentives as well as suggested reading lists.  This information is available online via the links listed below.  Children can participate in several summer reading programs simultaneously! Back at school in the fall, children should turn in a copy of their reading logs by the second week of school for an invitation to the Briargrove Summer Reading post party on the morning of Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009. We will send out reminders.  Have a super and safe summer and remember that READING ROCKS!
