Summer Reading Starts Now! Primary Book List 暑假阅读书单

Research shows that children who maintain their reading practice over longer holidays, also maintain their reading skills and avoid what is known as the ‘summer-time slide’. 

研究表明，在较长假期中保持阅读习惯的儿童，也能保持他们的阅读技能，避免所谓的"夏季滑坡"。 

We would like to share with you recommended reading lists of recent and popular books and share with you some general book selection and reading tips: 

借由本文，我们希望与您分享针对不同年龄段的推荐阅读清单。除此之外，我们还想与您分享一些选书和阅读技巧。

Ideally, this browsing of books online or in a store, and the final choice, should also involve the decision of your child. The more they are involved in their reading choices, the more enthused and committed they will be to their reading. 

理想情况是，让孩子参与到购书的过程中，由孩子决定是否选择阅读某本或某些书籍。他们越多地参与到自己的阅读选择中，他们就会对自己的阅读更加热情和投入。

Look for variety. Fiction is a terrific starting point, however there are so many different types of fiction books: realistic, fantasy, mystery etc. Non-fiction reading is another important branch of reading and there are many recent and popular examples of ‘Information texts’ that make non-fiction reading engaging and a whole lot of fun. 

另一条经验法则是要寻找多样性。小说是一个很好的起点，但是有许多不同类型的小说：现实主义的、幻想的、神秘的等等。非小说阅读是阅读的另一个重要分支，有许多最近流行的 "信息文本 "的例子，使非小说阅读变得更引人入胜、充满乐趣。 

Have a guideline at home that supports your child in taking the time to read. This kind of guideline is dependent on your child’s age but also different for every family. For example, practice reading in your household around the breakfast table and again in the evening. If you have a more independent reader, set a goal to read at least 30 minutes every day by themselves.

在家制定一份阅读准则是很重要的。这一准则取决于你孩子的年龄，但每个家庭的情况也有所不同。也许你的做法是围坐在在早餐桌旁阅读，晚上再读一次；如果你有一位更独立的读者，那么你可以设定一个目标，让他每天至少阅读30分钟。

Whichever guideline you have in your own household, one thing is more important than all else: reading is fun! If it becomes a chore or only a way to reach a reward, then the motivation to read will more easily fizzle out. Keep the spark of reading alive by making sure reading doesn’t become a duty. Children choosing their own books and own time and special environment to read in, can help with this. Especially as it is the holidays, funny, silly and some comic books really help too!

无论你在自己家里制定哪些准则以支持孩子的阅读，有一件事比其他一切都更重要：阅读是一种乐趣！如果它变成了一件苦差事，或者只是一种获得奖励的方式，那么阅读的动机就会更容易消失。确保阅读不会成为一种义务，从而保持阅读的火花。家长可以帮助孩子，让他们选择自己的书籍、选择自己的时间和特殊的环境来阅读。尤其是假期期间，有趣的、滑稽的，甚至是漫画书也是很有帮助的。
