Rising Fifth Grade Summer Reading
All fourth graders will be required to earn at least 20 AR points for their summer reading. I haveattached a list of suggested books, however, you may choose any book that is on, or above, thefifth grade level. Once you have read the book, you may come to the school or go to theFairfield County library or Chester Library to take your AR quiz.(Please check therichardwinn.org website for the times the computer lab will be open.) You are also required tokeep a reading log of your books. Please choose books that your child enjoys and that areappropriate for your child’s reading level.
