Family Reading Challenge

The Family Reading Challenge is a read aloud literacy program for students in grades 1 – 8. This Winter Reading Challenge encompasses the importance of reading aloud to children past the time they can read independently, some ideas for books to read together, and an easy challenge to enjoy as a family. There are 18 book choices and you can read as few or as many as you like.   
Online registration begins November 2. After your child is registered, you will receive an email to pick up a reading log curbside to check off the titles as you read them. Please email me with the titles you read and I will track your progress. You can email at whatever interval you choose – weekly, biweekly, whatever is most convenient for you. Each book read will earn one basket raffle chance for some fun gift cards to local businesses. The challenge ends April 2. If you have questions email marisfrey@stoningtonfreelibrary.org
