What is

Kids Read Now?

Over the summer, most children lose many

of their reading skills. Reading books every

day over the summer keeps their brains

ready for a great school year in the fall.

Kids Read Now (KRN) is a non-profit

summer reading program that keeps

children reading all summer long. Your

school has paid to enroll your child in this

program. That means your child will get

eight new books this summer plus the

MyStories that they can keep forever FREE!

Follow the steps below to keep your

child reading all summer long!

Then, learn more about how the KRN

program works on the next page.

How can you help?

You can return the paper form or scan the QR

code which will take you to portal.kidsreadnow.

org

where you can update your contact

information and see the books your child

selected at school. If your child is not attending

school in person, you may also be prompted to

select books with them from our Wish List.

Your child may have circled the books that they

chose so you can see what they will be reading,

and get them excited about reading!

Your school will invite you to a Family Reading

Event in the spring. At this event, your child will

receive their first book, and you will learn more

about the summer reading program.

Tips for helping your child

learn to read:

To figure out if a book is too hard for your child to read by themselves, ask them to read a few pages out loud. If they mispronounce or stumble over more than two words, the book is too hard for them to read by themselves. You will need to read the book with them! Otherwise, they may become frustrated or discouraged. That is not what YOU or KIDS READ NOW wants.

Challenging vs. Too Hard?

• Read often. If your child sees you reading, they

will want to read too!

• Make reading part of your child’s routine.

• Read aloud to each other, or ask your child to

read to a pet or stuffed animal.

• Help your child find books that fit their

interests—if they are interested in what they

are reading, they will read more! Take them to

libraries and used bookstores often!

• Make it easy for your student to read by finding

a special, quiet place to read.

• Talk about books with your child; use our

Discovery Sheets to ask questions that

will help them understand what they read.

• Download the Kids Read Now App for easy

access to their reading list and reporting.

Consejos para ayudar a su hijo a

aprender a leer:

Para averiguar si un libro es muy difícil para que lo lea su hijo por su cuenta, pídale que lea algunas páginas en voz alta. Si no pronuncia bien o se traba con más de dos palabras, el libro es muy difícil para que lo lea por su cuenta. ¡Necesitará leer el libro con él/ella! Sino podrían frustrarse o desalentarse y eso no es lo que USTED o KIDS READ NOW quieren.

¿Desafiante vs. muy difícil?

• Lea con frecuencia. ¡Si su hijo lo ve leer, querrá leer

también!

• Haga que la lectura sea parte de la rutina de su hijo.

• Léanse el uno al otro en voz alta, o pídale a su hijo que

le lea a una mascota o un peluche.

• Ayude a su hijo a encontrar libros que se ajusten a sus

intereses —¡si está interesado en lo que está leyendo,

leerá más! ¡Llévelo con frecuencia a bibliotecas y a

tiendas de libros usados!

• Ayude a que se le haga fácil la lectura encontrando un

lugar especial y callado para leer.

• Hable con su hijo sobre libros; use nuestras Hojas

de Descubrimiento para hacerle preguntas que le

ayudarán a entender lo que leyó.

• Descargue la app Kids Read Now para acceder

fácilmente a su lista de lectura e informes.
