Welcome LAUSD Families!

Thank you for supporting your child’s literacy this summer! We believe that learning never ends, and a key part of learning is literacy. Summer reading packs from Lerner share stories that help children practice reading, learn about new topics, and explore different stories. Your child will receive summer reading packs on the last day of school (TK students) or shipped to your home throughout the summer of 2023.

The books in the packs were selected to meet your child’s reading level and provide a variety of reading experiences. Reading at home is as important as reading in school. To reinforce the many things you are already doing to help your child learn, please enjoy this collection as a tool to grow literacy skills and to inspire joy.

Here are a few tips to inspire joy, discovery, and literacy in your home.

Make reading a part of your child’s everyday life.

Place books throughout your home. Incorporate reading into activities such as riding in the car or waiting at the doctor’s office.

Reflect with your child on what they have read.

How do these texts help them understand themselves or their community? How do their own experiences compare to those they are reading about?

Here are some additional activities you can do together to enrich learning at home:

1. Take turns making up a story and acting it out
2. Write a grocery list
3. Cook using a recipe and measuring tools
4. Write a song and perform it for other family members in person or over video
