Alabama/Auburn Reading Challenge

Be a Champion and Read! Read your way to the Iron Bowl (maybe)! We are going strong with our Alabama/Auburn Reading Challenge! This is a state-wide promotion sponsored by the Alabama Education Association. Click on the link for more info:
Our deadline at Ben Davis for having the form filled out and turned in is Friday, October 18.
 
Basically, your child reads 6 books on their level. They don't all have to be chapter books. Record those books, sign the form, then send it back to school.
Just by turning their form in to me they will get a coloring sheet and a bookmark for either Alabama or Auburn and two stickers!
They are also entered in a drawing with students from all over the state for 3 tickets to the Alabama/Auburn game!! There will be one winner for each team. For each student who turns in a form, their teacher will be entered into a drawing for money!! And if we get 70% of our student body to participate, our library will be entered into a drawing for $5,000!
 
 I laminated this paper so that we can erase the number with a tissue, then write in the new total each day.

 Students can practice counting by 5s and 10s with the way the footballs are displayed on the bulletin board.

 Today I added these classroom total charts. They generated lots of interest! Students were anxious to find our how their class was stacking up against the competition.
 The students can practice counting tally marks with these new classroom charts.


 The students love all the information at the Reading Challenge bulletin board!
