Reid Reading Stars
Reid Reading Stars is a program that encourages and promotes reading both at home and school during the months of October through May. A Kick-Off assembly was held on Friday, October 7th to motivate students about this year’s program. Each grade level is assigned monthly reading goals as follows:
Kindergarten/First Grade = 100 minutes
Second/Third Grades = 200 minutes
Fourth/Fifth Grades = 300 minutes
Students keep track of their reading progress with monthly reading logs. We are continuing weekly Book Recommendations giving students the opportunity for a book talk during Friday morning announcements. In addition, two book alerts are scheduled each month where students and teachers stop what they are doing to read for 10-15 minutes. Each month, the class in every grade level with the highest percentage of participation will be awarded with a banner placed outside their classroom door and a special banner will be given to the “Most Improved” class. Remember, to become a better reader, you need to READ!
