Origins of Life, Walter Bradley (10-12)

Dear Regents Community,
During one recent Sunday brunch, conversation turned to the subject of summer
reading. A mother of three (and now grandmother of three) remarked, “That was
always my favorite day of school! I would pick up my children, we’d go out to
lunch, and then we stopped at our favorite bookstore for the books we would get
to read that summer. The teachers always picked such wonderful things for us to
read as a family.”
Soon summer will be here: we will be playing in the yard, sitting on the front
porch, lying on the beach, or cruising in the boat; most importantly, we will be
with our loved ones. The intensity and rigor of the school year will give way to a
more relaxed schedule, and we will have more time to pursue our own interests
and hobbies. Summer is also a perfect opportunity to sit, relax and become
immersed in a great book. It is with this vision in mind that we created and bring
to you our summer reading program.
The pages that follow include our new summer reading philosophy statement, as
well as the entire summer reading program for grades K-12. Hopefully you will
take the time not only to become familiar with the summer reading of your grade
but also to look at what the other classes are reading. Adventure, history,
romance, adversity, victory, tragedy, and mystery lie within the pages of the
books listed. What could be better than an icy glass of lemonade, a warm
breeze, and a great book?
It has been a distinct pleasure working with Mrs. Howell and the faculty on the
summer reading program. When this reaches your hands, go out to lunch, find a
cozy spot in the library or bookstore, and enjoy some wonderful and fascinating
stories together with your family and friends. Have a great summer!
God bless,
Geoffrey Sahs

A Statement on Summer Reading
A guide for students entering K-12th grades
Summer reading is one of essential elements of what we are trying to accomplish in the Humanities. We
are trying to inculcate and encourage our students to have a lifelong love of reading and learning. We
recognize that books assigned during the school year have to compete with the pressures of a rigorous
academic and extracurricular life here at Regents. Summer is the perfect time to enjoy a fine example of
literature or history in a friendly, familiar, and family filled environment.
Therefore we have chosen books which reflect our desire to have students love and appreciate their summer
reading experience while reading great works that are not only age appropriate and accessible but are also
books they will enjoy reading. Too often we expect reading to be a chore because of the pressures of the
school year and the intensity of the text itself. In contrast, summertime is an opportunity to relax with a
book and have the chance to interact with it in a personal way. To develop a love for reading, we must
embrace the idea that we can read for pleasure and the books we choose for summer reading reflect our
desire to build interest in reading through great, and more importantly, enjoyable stories.

3 – Logic and Rhetoric
3.1 Logic and Rhetoric Summer Reading Statement
Part of enjoying a great work of literature is being able to personally invest yourself in the story presented.
Students should be prepared to discuss their experience with the text in the format of our daily class
discussions. Given that there is a choice of readings at each grade-level, the discussions in class will be
enhanced by the varying experiences of each student. Therefore we will be able to discuss the underlying
truth and beauty in literature and in history as students bring their varied experiences to the table.
The first writing assignment of the year will be a response paper over the summer reading. Attached to this
document is the response paper template which will be due on the second day the class meets. This
template serves as a guide both for the journey through the text as well as discussion in class. It also allows
the student to write their response as they read or immediately after they read the text during the summer.
3.2 7th-9th Grade Summer Reading
The following questions apply to the 7-9 summer reading. Use the questions as a template for writing your
response. Please write one response paper for each of the books you read. There are four questions for you
to answer and you should anticipate writing 1-2 paragraphs for each question. In keeping with the more
personal and informal nature of summer reading, your responses must be handwritten. Your responses will
be due at the beginning of your second meeting in class. Since the purpose of the response paper is to help
you during class discussion of the text, reference the text often in your responses. While we will not be
looking for a particular form of citation, be sure to use page numbers for reference. Note: Do not use Cliff
Notes, Sparknotes, movies, or any other substitute/aid materials. Regents’ desire is for each student to
enjoy these works and appreciate their role in history. Please use the ISBN number to access the
appropriate versions.
1: What is the book about?
2: What were your connections between the text and your prior experience or
knowledge?
3: To which character did you most strongly respond? Why?
4. As you read the book, how did it change a view you previously held? Describe how it
revealed something new to you whether it be about life in general or yourself.
