Subject: [CASL-L] Summer Reading 2021

Good Morning CASL friends,

Yes, believe it or not my school is starting discussions on Summer Reading for 2021.  In the past we have had a required reading for each grade and then students must read 1 additional book for independent reading.  We've provided students with a number of titles to choose from for the independent component and then they participate in Independent Reading Book Talks when they return in September.  

I am looking for other ideas from you all on what you do (specifically HS level)? 

Any and all suggestions / ideas/ book lists / genres / titles are appreciated.

Thank you and have a great week, 

--
