Teach.com (a online teaching program at the USC Rossier School of Education) has created an enormous flowchart to help young adults and adults find new books to read this summer. I’ve embedded the complete infographic below for your summer reading pleasure.
“With research finding that children who do not read over the summer may lose up to three months of reading progress, it’s important to encourage your students to pick up a few books during the hot months ahead. To help encourage high school students to find a book of their choice, we’ve compiled a list of 101 books to kick off your learners’ summer reading. Interested in finding fiction vs. non-fiction books? Would you like to find classical or contemporary fiction? Intrigued by survival books? Tales of war? We have them all and many more to choose from! Follow our chart of top picks and peruse the different categories until you find something that’s a perfect fit!”
With spring coming to a close, it’s time to refine your summer reading list! If you find yourself outside the phenomena that is “The Hunger Games”, but still enjoy a good read from time to time, this list below is a must read.
As an avid reader and English major, I was very happy with the novels selected for this list. My first recommendation would have to be “The Great Gatsby”. Not only being my favorite book at this stage of my life, it’s another book to be getting a Hollywood makeover. And it’s always cool to be the guy who scoffs at dissimilarities between the movie and novel throughout the entire film.
Covering topics ranging as far as a family in captivity to basic human survival and struggle, completion of this list guarantees far fewer dull moments this summer. Leave us a comment below of the best page turner money can buy. Make me proud.
