Rules:
The challenge will run from January 4, 2016-February 29, 2016.
If you started a book in December and you are still reading and it fits a category above, it can count towards the challenge, but nothing prior to December counts. We need to be challenging ourselves to read!
You may only use 1 Book for each task and that book can only be used for 1 category.
Each book must be at least 100 pages long. Audiobooks are fine, as long as the print versions meet the page requirements.
Either electronically keep track of your books or fill out the book log. When you have completed this challenge, make sure to drop off your book log or make sure talk to Mrs. Healy.
Prizes will be given from a random drawing of students who completed the challenge!
If you have other questions, feel free to see Mrs. Healy in the media center.
Other than these rules just have fun!
