Extreme Readers:
We “LAVA” Classic Books!
Each month, one to two Classic books will be assigned for independent
reading. These Classic books are
available in our classroom for check-out.
For each required book, you will need to fill out a “We LAVA Classic
Books” form and have a reading conference
with Mrs. Taylor. You may also read
additional classics to move higher up on the reading chart below, but remember,
you must complete a form for each one.
Only Classic books you have not read before count toward this
project. Everyone is required to read at
least 20 minutes four nights a week as homework for Language Arts FOCUS.

DISASTER

11-15 Classic books, you are an EARTHQUAKE

If you read
46-50 Classic books this year, you are an VOLCANO
If you read 51

We will have a special ceremony at the end of the year to celebrate our
reading!
All “We LAVA Classic Books” forms
must be kept in your Independent Reading Folder in the classroom.
