Library Christmas Break Reading!

Dear Parents,

Before Winter Break, we will be sending home a flyer with your student describing the opportunity to win prizes/BOOKS in the library for reading during this time. In order to win a prize, each student must fill out "My Reading Record."   The columns include title, author's last name, minutes read, level of book, page began, page ended and genre.  At the end of Winter Break, your student needs to do some math by taking their total minutes and turning them into their TOTAL HOURS READ.  This paper should be returned TO THE LIBRARY with a PARENT SIGNATURE. This will be different than their RAH/MAH folders. To be eligible, they must keep track of this information on THIS piece of paper and turn it in to the library during the FIRST week back from vacation(Jan.6-10TH). Please encourage your students to read over Winter Break!!

Happy Holidays!
Mrs. Morrow & Mrs. Robinett
