		Summer Reading In the interest of doing our part to save the environment, the Hall “Summer Reading List” will not be distributed to individual students this year.  Instead the list will be available on the Hall Library web site http://hall-school.org/library and at local libraries and bookstores.  All current 5th, 6th & 7th grade students are REQUIRED to read at least one book this summer from or related to this list.  It must be a book you have never read before.  Don’t panic!  If you are reading a series, and the next one is not on the list – no problem.  Want to read a different book by an author on the list – no problem.  The point is to find great books to read.  Students must fill out a BOOK REVIEW SHEET (available on the web site) and turn it in to their language arts teacher when school starts in August. Students are ENCOURAGED to read lots of books during the summer.  Those who read at least three books, and turn in BOOK REVIEW SHEETS on all three, will receive a special ice cream treat from the Hall Middle School PTA when school resumes in August 2007.  Have a wonderful summer, reading! - Carol Halpern - District Librarian
