March Reading Calendar Goal: 250 minutes

I Love to Read Month: 
Our class is having an AR/Book Challenge. Your child can earn an entry into the drawing several ways. Some of the ways include:
*for each AR test passed
*for every 20 minutes read
*for every book read
Please continue to record the minutes your child reads on their monthly calendar. They will get an entry into the drawing for each 20 minutes read. If you choose to record the number of books they read each day they will get an entry for each book read. You can use the calendar to record this as well. Please circle the number of books read, that way I will be able to tell the difference.  Thanks for promoting the love of reading with your child at home.
