Summer Reading Challenge: Escape In To A Good Book

5/15/2016

Do you want to keep your students reading over the summer? They will love finding different places to read with this summer reading challenge, and hopefully grow to love books even more!
Picture
This past week, I gave my students the Fountas and Pinnell BAS reading assessment. I was so proud of all their hard work and their progress along the way. There were times when even I had tears of joy as they were reading and retelling a story. 
(If you follow us on Instagram, you may have seen this post about how proud I was of my students. I wanted to shout it from the rooftops!)

I want my students to see reading as something they can do for enjoyment, at anytime. I want them to automatically grab a book to take along with them, without thinking twice. I want them to get lost in books, anytime, anywhere. Maybe I am romanticizing the idea, but I believe it can happen. So, I created a summer reading challenge focusing on reading in fun places, with friends and loved ones. 
Picture
I also created a similar challenge chart with a prize incentive when students bring their chart back to school in August/September. You can click here to find both options! If you have a social media account for your classroom, it would also be fun to encourage parents to sent pictures of their child completing the challenge. You could post some of the pictures to your classroom account to keep the incentive going strong throughout the summer.

Let me know how you keep your kiddos reading over the summer, and feel free to share the successes of your summer reading challenge! Happy reading!

In what creative ways does the article suggest maintaining the momentum of the challenge throughout the summer, especially through the use of social media and parent involvement? regard <a href="https://it.telkomuniversity.ac.id/">Telkom University</a>

One downside of homeschooling is the potential for gaps in education if parents are not well-prepared.

Converting an IRA to gold means moving retirement funds into a gold-backed IRA, allowing investment in physical gold. This can help protect against inflation and market volatility but requires a self-directed IRA and a specialized custodian.
