I Love to Read Month reading logs

For the month of February, we will be hosting a reading competition as part of our I Love To Read festivities. Every grade level will be competing for the most minutes read.

For every day that your child reads or is read to for 20 minutes, they earn a check mark. They will turn in the log every Thursday to their teacher (so they will not have minutes for that day), and the total minutes for both their class and grade will be added to the overall tracker. Each week, the top class with the most minutes from each grade level will be announced! At the end of the month, the winning class will receive prizes!

HAPPY READING!
