Reading Requirements - I require 10 Reading points
each 9 weeks. Points can be earned by reading any book. If a book is
considered AR, Accelerated Reader, the student may take the AR test provided
on our library computers. If the book is not considered AR, a book report may
be written. It must be at least one full page and must include the title,
author of the book,
and number of pages in the book along with a one page summary of the book.
Points will be given according to the length and level of the book. At the end
of each 9 week period, there will be a reward movie, based on literature, for
those students who reach their goal.
I want your child to enjoy reading everyday, so anything they read counts.
Book Report Point Scale for non AR books:
100 page books - 2 points
200 page books - 3 points
300 page books- 4 points
400 page books - 5 points
etc. etc. etc.
