Reading Goals

Good Afternoon Families! We are on our last stretch of the school years. We have 25 days left of school. In order to keep students motivated to keep giving their best efforts and contiue to become better readers, we have set personal and a classroom goal. The class has set a goal of reading 200 books by May 17th. We started this on April 17th. Each student has set an individual goal to reach as well. If the class goal is met they will receive a reward from me. Mrs. Floyd and Coach Cole offered them a reward as well. Each student picked an individual reward if they meet their goal. I know they can do this! It isn't only about reading the books but they must also show comprehension for the book to be counted. We are keeping a chart outside of our classroom to track their progress. I will keep you posted on our progress. This will be their homework as well. Each night they are to read for at least 20 minutes. This has been the expectation all year. Please refer to the previous post of how important that 20 minutes is for the students. If your child is not bringing home books that are just right for them, please contact me and I will double check which books they are bringing home for homework. Thank you so much for your help!
