Learning Benefits

Reading over the summer helps prevent the summer slide – the loss of reading skills many kids experience during the long break. Logging minutes, completing bingo squares and writing short reviews turns reading into a game and builds a daily habit.

Age Range

Ages 5-12. Simple enough for early readers with help; older kids can fill them in alone.

Variations and Extension Ideas

• Offer a small reward for a bingo line or a full card.
• Take the bingo card to the library to choose books.
• Read aloud together and count it for both of you.
• Share book reviews with friends or grandparents.

Printing Tips

• Print at 100% (Actual size) so the boxes and lines stay the right size for small handwriting.
• Slip a page into a sheet protector and use a dry-erase marker to reuse it all week.
• Print the answer key separately and keep it in a folder for quick checking.
• Print several copies of the reading log and staple them into a booklet.
