Reading Incentive Programs:
Wrapped Up In Reading This is a reading incentive program. Librarians and teachers have selected a list of 25 books that are great for third graders to read! These books were all published in 2010--so they're relatively new. When students read and write a book review for 5 of the books they will be invited to a special "Wrapped-Up In Reading" celebration at the end of May/ beginning of June. If the students have read & written reviews for all 25 of the books they will receive special recognition and prizes at the celebration. Click on the link to see the list of books!
