Me in My World

Reading program for 1st graders
To encourage reading for pleasure as a habit.
The rules for 1st graders are:
- Read to your parents (or let them read to you) 20 minutes
every day.
- For every 20-minute session your parents read to you or you
read to them, write the date on the blank next to a smiling child in your "Me in My
World" booklet. Color the smiling child next to that blank.
- After you have "dated" all 5 of the smiling
children (after you have read for 100 minutes), ask your parents to sign for that group of
smiling children in your "Me in My World" booklet.
- Bring your "Me in My World" booklet to the library
and receive a prize for the group of smiling children you just finished coloring.
- No more than 1 smiling child may be colored each day, maximum of 7
each week.
- Bring your booklet to the library as soon as you complete
each group of smiling children. (Don't wait until the booklet is finished to bring
it to the library. Let us congratulate you at each level. We will give no more than
2 prizes each time you come to the library.)
