Memorial Day is behind us, school is out, the temperatures are climbing... it's summer! And with summer comes summer reading. There are different seasons of life, some of which afford more time in the summer than others. But no matter what stage you're in, I hope you'll always make time for great reads. I invite you to join me as we kick off our new focus area for the summer months! But let me explain...
Over the next two months, we're going to try something new.There will be weeks when the blog itself is quiet, but we'll still be reading and learning. Here's the plan: at present, I am busy collecting the summer reading assignments for the young women in our ward. They have some interesting selections! My goal is that we as sisters can back up these lovely young ladies by reading along with them. Not only will this help them in their studies, but it will be a fun opportunity for them to get to know us -- and for us to get to know them! If you follow this blog and are not in the Shallowford Ward, please contact me at yourliteracyspecialist@gmail.com to get your ward involved too!
As soon as I get the list finalized, I will post it here on the blog. I invite each of you to volunteer to read at least one of the selections. We will take a few weeks to read then follow up with some fun chances to discuss, share, and compare notes with our young women! I hope you'll be brave and volunteer. This should be a fun way to spice up our summer reading and make new friends along the way.
Thanks in advance for your support, and stay tuned for more soon!
