1 Summer Reading 2017 Expectations: Each rising 6th, 7th, and 8th grader at Starr-Iva Middle School is expected to read at least one book from this list over summer break. When you return to SIMS in August you will need to take an AR test on the book you read within the first two weeks of school. All students who score at least an 80 on the test will be rewarded! All of these books have been nominated to receive a South Carolina Junior Book Award so they re all great summer reads! Read through the summaries to help you select the perfect book. Beside the title and author you ll find some more helpful information: ~ IL stands for Interest Level. This is based on the book s content, theme, characterization, and plot. MG stands for Middle Grades (4-8) MG+ stands for Upper Middle Grades (6 and up) UG stands for Upper Grades (9-12) ~ BL stands for Book Level and relates to the difficulty of the text. For example, a book level of 4.5 means the text could likely be read independently by a fourth grader during the fifth month of school. ~ AR Pts. stands for Accelerated Reader Points. Each student will be assigned an appropriate AR goal after the first round of standardized testing.
