Reading for 6 Flags Tickets!
January 31, 2008 | Leave a Comment
I am sending home today, Thursday, January 31, some information about how your child can earn a free ticket to six flags. All your student needs to do is read for six hours between now and February 25. We figured it out in class today that that is about 12 minutes a day from now until then! They may read books, comic books, the newspaper, anything they like as long as it is not assigned reading from me. I will be sending home our book for this semester early next week. The reading for that will not count.
Attached to the paper is an extra reading log in case they need it. Please remember to initial each entry. There is a deadline for the school to turn in the papers so you must return the sheet by February 25!
Good luck and happy reading!
