Reading over the summer is extremely important for students and their academic success. Continuing to read throughout the summer months will promote learning and reinforce reading skills taught throughout the school year that students can lose when reading is not consistent during summer. Complete three lines on this BINGO card (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal) and you win! Complete the whole card and you win twice! Color each box you complete and have a parent sign below. All reading must be at least 30 minutes to count. Parent Signature _______________________________ Read a book by Dr. Seuss
