Bring the certificate you received from participating in the TSCPL summer reading program to attend this year's party. I will be accepting them at the Meet the Teacher Night, as well as the first week of school. There will be a box in the library.  The date and time, for the party, will be announced soon!
Each year I challenge students to read a recommended list of books
3rd Grade-  read 8 novels; 4th Grade- read 10 novels; 5th and 6th Grade- read 12 novels on this year's list. All studens participating must take the A.R. test for each book read, receiving a 70% or higher score, and notify Mrs. Hartpence when you have completed all 12!  Upon completion you will receive a $10.00 gift card from Barnes & Noble and your name will be announced at the end-of-the-year assembly. (The students completing the challenge will be invited to the WAW Reading Fesitval the next fall when the authors of the winnings books will be recognized for their work.) Last Day of book challenge is May 14, 2010. (Click on link below for WAW list of books for 2009-2010.
