South Elementary will have a school-wide reading challenge for grades 2nd through 5th from the beginning of the year until the end of the first quarter on October 11th, using the reading assessment program Accelerated Reader. Please visit https://5il.co/2w7ix to see a breakdown of these goals and prizes that will be awarded.
Students will read books and then pass comprehension quizzes to count toward their total word counts. Data shows that programs such as Accelerated Reader dramatically help improve students' reading comprehension skills.
We hope these incentives will excite students about reading and increase their time reading at home and outside of the classroom.
Questions? Please contact your student's classroom teacher or the South Elementary School office.
