They are putting in the work, why not get a little reward for their efforts! By submitting the reading log to me, once the time requirement is complete, the students will earn a FREE ticket to Six Flags to use this summer. Remember, there is a water park now for those who are not a fan of roller coasters. The due date for Six Flags Read To Succeed is coming up. All reading counts, reading to themselves, reading together with you, being read to by you! Be sure to record the stories you have read and the times on the sheet that was sent home. If you have lost your page, I have attached a copy here.
The RBES PTO is heading up this kindness initiative. Information is coming home to begin Raise Craze at our school in February. The purpose of Raise Craze is not to pay students for being kind, but to encourage acts of kindness in general. This is to go along with the "k" in the ROCKETS way! Stay tuned!
