Welcome / Monthly Reading Log

Reading Register

Dear Parents,

We would like to continue reading at Potowmack through the use of reading logs this year. Students are asked to spend twenty minutes each day reading outside of school. Students can read anything they want – magazines, textbooks, library books, etc. Time spent listening to a parent read out loud also can count as part of the twenty minutes of reading. Parents are asked to record what the child read, and sign next to the title of the book on the reading register. Students must read at least twenty five times during the month. When students return their reading registers to the library during the first week of the new month, students will get to choose a free used book! Students who remember to return Reading Registers for every month of the school year will get to participate in a special popcorn party in June. Please remember to send in any used books that you would like to donate. Also, if you find that your child has chosen a book that is too hard to read or is inappropriate for the age level, please send the book back and your child may make another choice. Thanks!

Sincerely,

Michele Copeland, librarian
