Since taking AR quizzes was one of several options during term 2, many students chose to just read one book, complete their book share presentation, and not do any of the other tasks. So, if you child earned a 3, that's why.
Students should be reading for a minimum of 30 minutes daily and they have had that as homework for the entire school year. Additionally, depending on how efficient they are with their time, students have up to 10 minutes of reading time in class every day.
For term 3, AR quizzes will be required again and I'll expect for students to meet their goal. For parents who have children who are skilled in the art of excuse-making, here's a conversation guide:
Students who read more perform better in school, on assessments, and in college. If you need suggestions about how to help, encourage, and/or bribe your child to read, please email me.
