Reading over the summer helps all kids avoid the dreaded "summer slide," but for students with print disabilities, reading is even more important. We recently surveyed
Learning Ally's
educators, and they agree that ear-reading human-narrated audiobooks help:
77%
of students to improve their
vocabulary skills
83%
of students to
comprehend
grade-level texts
92%
of struggling readers to become
more independent
We want to help motivate students to read more this summer with our
Summer Reading Together
challenge! It's a program designed specifically for kids with print disabilities like dyslexia or visual impairment. It's
free
to sign up for
Learning Ally members
, and students compete to win cool prizes including four pairs of BEATS headphones!
Sign up today!
Need some reading ideas?
Check out our featured book recommendations which are broken down by grade level. You can see them
here.
We'll also be hosting a fun
social media challenge
for summer reading during the month of
July
for another chance to win prizes. Don't miss it!
