Reading is fun! But should it be required, or should kids have the chance to choose between Yes and No? Many kids are given books to read over the summer. Some people say summer reading keeps kids’ minds sharp(敏锐的). Others say kids need a break.
You’re on break. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t learn. Books can teach you anything and everything. You can learn new words or get inspired to create(创作) your own book! —Alexandra Kotsinis, 10, Westfield, New Jersey
Summer vacation is usually three months long. This means there is a long learning gap before the next school year. This time can be used to read. And it can stop learning loss. —Simran Adnani, 7, Troy, Michigan
Yes, summer reading should be required. It’s something fun that can replace(代替) screen time. —Kauther Haque, 10, Milton, Ontario, Canada
If summer reading is not required, more kids will spend their time playing outside. This is a very healthy lifestyle to develop. —Aahil Bhagyaraj, 10, Chattanooga, Tennessee
We already have nine months of reading in school. Why do we have to read during our three months of freedom(自由)? —Ansley MacLeod, 11, Denver, Colorado
Summertime is a time for kids to relax, go outside, and enjoy just being a kid. —Pallavi Shah, 11, Scotch Plains, New Jersey
Kids have activities planned for the summer, such as going camping. So they won’t have time for extra reading. —Naftali Bochner, 10, Bronx, New York
