The reading log is due every Monday. Each reading log must include parent initials to be considered complete. All the reading recorded should be reading that is done outside of school. Please record the title of the book read and the minutes read each day. If multiple books were read you can just include one title. Reading packets are sent home throughout the school year and these passages count as well. At the end of the week please add up the total number of minutes read before returning it to school. Below you will find the reading log document if your child cannot find theirs. The reading log will be included in your child's reading grade as participation. This accounts for 10% of their grade. Thank you for supporting and encouraging your child to become life long reaers!
