The reading competition is great fun and I'd love for you to join one of the teams! If you are a 4th or 5th grader you will have a chance to read some great books, have some great fun, and show off your brain power! If you'd like to be on a team, come to the library and start checking out the books that are on the special reading competition bookshelves. I also have lists of the books there that you may take. I'm ordering plenty of copies of each book so look for these in our library. If we're all out of books to check out and you really can't wait, though, you could try looking at the Public Library or your favorite bookstore. Let me know if you are interested in the reading competition! Each student just has to read 4 chapter books, take the AR test for each book and then sign up to be on a team when I ask for sign-ups. Then we'll just keep reading and have many booktalks until the competition is here!
