100+Club+Information

Dear Parents,

This year your child has the opportunity to be a member of our classroom “100 Club”! To earn their way into this club, your child will need to complete reading 100 __chapter__ books during the course of the school year. Books read together during Reading class at school do not count- this is 100 chapter books they read at home or during their own free time in school. At the end of the year, we will have a celebration for students who have made it into the club!

Your child can borrow books from our classroom library, read their own chapter books at home, or from the public library.

You and your child can read the books together: you can read a page to them, then they can read a page to you, or your child can read them on their own. I would LOVE for you to do a combination of these things- this way your child is hearing you read fluently, they are practicing reading to you, they are working on their own independent reading, and you’ll get to spend some time together too! 

Your child will have a reading log inside their homework folder in a sheet protector. They will use this to write down the titles of the chapter books they have read... just make sure they are in the correct spots as there are 20 different genres of books that they must read and then 80 of their own choosing. PLEASE KEEP THE LIST IN HOMEWORK FOLDERS AT ALL TIMES!

Your child can become a bronze club member by reading 50-75 books, a silver member (76-99 books), or a __gold member by completing the 100 books__. I will post updates to each level on our class website.

This is something new I am trying this year. I am very excited about this new incentive program to encourage reading outside of our classroom!

Thank you for helping your child become such a great reader this year!
