Points range from 1 to over 20 per book.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Third graders are required to read 100 points and f</SPAN>ourth graders are required to earn 150 points this year. This will count as a reading grade at the end of the year.

The books however, do not have to come from the JES library.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You may use books from other libraries, books you own, etc. With thousands of titles, it is impossible to have a list of titles.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>To see if any book has points associated with it, check the Scholastic Reading Counts ecatalog website:<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN><A href="http://src.scholastic.com/ecatalog">http://src.scholastic.com/ecatalog</A>.
