Summer Reading Adventures

This summer South Elementary Students and staff members are being challenged to read for 1000 minutes. We have a summer theme coloring sheet students will complete. As students read their 20 minutes, they will color in a portion of the summer reading form. Students will turn in their forms when they come back in August to win fun prizes donated by local businesses. There will be two different levels for prizes.

• Level 1- Students read 500 or more minutes throughout the summer will earn a 20 minute outdoor party with popsicles.
• Level 2- Students who read 1000 minutes throughout the summer will earn a 20 minute outdoor party with popsicles and a goody bag filled with books and donations from our local sponsors.

There are many ways to encourage your child to read. Students enjoy reading in different places around the house or yard, reading to stuffed animals or pets, reading with a sibling or friend, and some even enjoy reading in the car or listening to audio books in the car. Make reading fun for your kids. Ideas for reading: Read to yourself, read with someone at home, listen to an audio book, listen to books being read aloud online, read the newspaper, read magazines, etc.
