Summer Reading: Kindergarten

Welcome to Kindergarten.  Most students at Oakwood will be learning to read during Kindergarten.   We want to make this an enjoyable experience.  Summer reading should be fun.  At this age, reading aloud to children is probably the best way to help them develop an enjoyment of reading.   We encourage you to read books you and your child can enjoy together.   Read any of the books listed below or a book by the same author.
