Upper School students can participate in the Trinity Reads! Summer Reading Challenge. Anyone who completes this summer’s reading challenge will receive a one-of-a-kind highly-sought-after Trinity Reads! badge, along with other bookish goodies.
Congratulations on making it through another school year!
Lettuce celebrate and ketchup on all the great books we've been wanting to read!
Why should you make time for pleasure reading?
Readers feel happier about themselves and their lives! Readers feel closer to their friends and community!
Take a look at this study of pleasure reading in adults in the UK.
Stress reduction!
A 2009 study from the University of Sussex found that reading can reduce stress better and more quickly than other stress reduction techniques, such as listening to music, drinking tea, or taking a walk.
Our brains love stories!
Stories can produce both physiological and behavioral changes.
Researchers from UC Berkeley found that reading and listening to stories activates the same areas of the brain to create meaning from words. So using eyes or ears, read for pleasure this summer!
Also, it's fun!
