Dear parents and students,
Attached please find the Broadwater Academy English summer reading lists and assignments for grades 5-8. Titles have been thoughtfully selected based on a number of factors, including their relevance to your student’s grade-specific English curriculum. We hope you will encourage your student to read regularly this summer, and we thank you for your support. Finding the best texts to challenge, inspire, and motivate our students is always our intention.
Students will also be assigned summer math work designed to reinforce previously learned concepts and prevent skill regression over the break. All assignments will be completed online through IXL. Below are the required topics for each course, along with recommended pacing guidelines. Please click here for instructions on how to log in to IXL
All summer work should be completed and turned in by the first day of school, August 25th, 2025. Students will earn a completion quiz grade for their summer work and it will be their first grade in the grade book for Quarter 1. If your student did not receive summer work, or needs a new copy, extra copies are attached by grade level, below.
Printed copies are also available at the front desk of the main building.
Sincerely,
Kathy Custis
Middle School Director
