Summer Reading Challenge Contract

Your child has worked extremely hard this school year with the Wilson

Reading System to improve their reading skills. Unfortunately, if your child

does not continue to read every day they may lose the skills they have

learned. Too many times students have returned to school in September

having lost much of what they have learned because the skills were not

reinforced over the summer.

I would like to issue a challenge!! If you have your child read at least 5

days a week for 30 minutes a day all summer long (8-10 weeks) they will

earn a very special activity with Mrs. Loy. This way, your child can

maintain the skills they learned and possibly increase their ability. I know

this may be a challenge to fit in, but reading is just too important. They can

always read the 30 minutes just before they go to sleep. This is a nice way

to calm kids down and hopefully instill a love of reading (and many over the

years have).

Please sign the contract below, return it and fill out the reading log over the

summer. Admission to our special activity is a completed reading log.

Also, as long as your child keeps doing the challenge they can keep joining

me. Some kids have done this into high school. I appreciate your help with

this. I will send home a copy of this contract so you may use it to remind

your child what you have committed to. Students may also read with an

older sibling, babysitter etc. A copy of the log is also on my website

through the ESM/Minoa Elem. site.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Loy

I, _____________________, will monitor my child, ___________________,

during their 5 days a week, 30 minute reading sessions for the 8 - 10 weeks

school is not in session. We will maintain the reading log so my child can

gain admission to the special activity Mrs. Loy has planned.
