No More Reading Calendars!

I have never been a reading calendar fan. N.E.V.E.R. We are strongly encouraged though to use them at our school. Blah! I figured it out this year though and we are having a blast tracking our reading. We do a new reading challenge each month with a reward at the end if we meet our goal.

This month, the kids took home a turkey feather every night and parents signed it. The next day we added it to our turkey. Below  is our awesome (colorful) turkey! The principal would even stop in to check on our feathery progress daily.

In September we did a football game and students earned yards for their reading. In October we had our own version of the World Series. Stay tuned for December's reading challenge!
