The 4th-5th Grade Official Book Challenge!

So, it's official! The 4th and 5th Grade at Mazel are on a mission: to collectively read 180 Mazel Library Books by the end of the year! (Grand Class Prize to be announced.) In addition to the collective goal, points will be acquired individually for completing books as well as responding in written form. Points will  buy bookmarks, book-covers, and other literacy-related materials.

Morah Chani visited our classroom on Friday and read us a great, humorous book titled Miss Malarkey Leaves No Reader Behind. The book illustrates how one boy finally finds the book that he is interested in with the help of his teacher, Miss Malarkey.

Our goal is that each student find books in many genres in our library that he/she will find captivating! Like one of the students said during the discussion "when I read a good book, I don't want to put it down!" That's the kind of reading we want!

More details to follow soon.
