Would you like to encourage your kids to read this winter? Share this challenge!
Objective: Encourage students and families to embrace the joy of reading during the winter break, promoting literacy and a love for stories.
Program Details:
Duration: The challenge will run throughout the winter break. December 20th – January 3rd
Reading Goals: Participants will set personal reading goals for the break, whether it's a certain number of books, pages, or chapters.
Book Selection: There will be no restrictions on the types of books—students can choose any genre, fiction or nonfiction, that interests them.
Tracking Progress: Use the simple reading log tracker, students can jot down the books they want to read, track the books/chapters/pages completed, and time spent reading each day.
Engagement: Encourage students/families to share their progress on social media by posting about their current reads, favorite quotes, or book covers, tagging the school's page or district page, and using the designated hashtag (#APSWinterReads).
Recognition: Participants who turn in their reading log to their teacher after the break will receive a Winter Reading Wonderland certificate, and participants who post on social media may be acknowledged periodically through shoutouts or features on the school's social media during and after the break.
