Each child in first grade at Ray School is asked to read a minimum of 25 books per school year. We will record the number of books your child reads each quarter on his or her report card.
A reading log has been provided to record the the books your child reads each quarter A new log will be provided each quarter or you may download it by clicking here. Any book you read to your child, your child reads independently, or to you may be listed on the log. Each child should read a minimum of 7 books this quarter. Please return the log at the end of the quarter.
The books may come from any source. The Ray School library and the public library are good sources for books your child will enjoy reading. Books from home, books borrowed from the classroom library, and those purchased from the Scholastic Book Clubs may be read and included on the log.
