Red Apple Reading Magazine May 2016 | Page 3

Connect with us! Hooray for May! This month many schools are busy wrapping up the school year, moms all over the country will be celebrated and given extra attention by their children, and we will honor and enjoy the Memorial Day holiday, the unofficial beginning of summer. In this issue you’ll find reviews of many great books to share with your children, some fun ways to blend reading with art, plus a new practice reader, Art Day, and plenty of fun reading skills practice and literacy activities. Enjoy! All of the best, What you may not know is that May is also Get Caught Reading month, a national campaign to remind everyone how much fun it is to read! Although it can be challenging to find time to read every day, I’d like to remind you how critically important it is to your child’s future. Reading can be easily worked into a daily routine and become a time you and your children will look forward to. Some of my fondest memories are of reading to my daughters every evening when they were young.
