Read to Succeed

The third grade at Skinner North will be participating in a "Read to Succeed" program.  A reading log will be sent home Friday.  Information about the program is explained below:

Your child’s class is participating in an exciting program that encourages students in grades K through 6 to read for fun. Read to Succeed is a free program sponsored by Six Flags Theme Parks. Every student who completes six hours of recreational reading before the  deadline noted is eligible for a free admission ticket valid at participating Six Flags Theme Parks. Students will develop a greater appreciation for books when they see that you think reading is important too. You are sure to have fun as you investigate the world of reading together! 

Here’s what you need to know: 

• Only students in grades K through 6 are eligible to participate. 
• Review the attached reading log. Your child should use this sheet to record what and how long he/she reads. 
• Your child must complete six hours, or 360 minutes, of recreational reading. 
• Please initial each entry and then sign the reading log to verify that the six hours of reading has been completed. 
• Your child can read books, magazines, newspapers, or comic books. Reading for homework or a class assignment does NOT count. 
• Students can read silently, aloud, or with an adult—you can read to your child, or your child can read to you. 
• Remind your child to return the reading log to his/her teacher by the date on the log. 
• Late entries will NOT be accepted.
