We are excited to introduce a new reading plan designed to foster a love of reading and enhance literacy skills. Starting this month, students will be encouraged to read at home every night and track their progress using a reading log. Each student will receive a log to record their nightly reading, and those who consistently complete their reading and return their logs each month will be awarded special monthly reading tags as a token of their achievement. If they earn one for each month, they will get an additional one at the end of the year. The first reading log will go home on Tuesday, September 3rd. We believe that this nightly reading routine will not only help students improve their reading abilities but also make reading a fun and rewarding part of their daily lives. Some of the other reading incentives include:
- Tracking minutes read throughout the school on a centrally-located bulletin board,
- Showcase the number of minutes read on the school website so the community can see school-wide progress
- Host a parent AVID night in the fall to explain elements of AVID, highlighting the importance of reading.
