**This year we are going to read 30 or more books by May 15, 2015.** I know that sounds like a lot of reading, but really it is less than one book per week. At the end of each week, ask yourself a couple of questions:
 * First, "Between school and home, am I reading between 30-45 minutes per day?"
 * Also, "Am I choosing books that are a just right reading level?"



**We will keep track of our reading goal in a couple of ways:**

1) As we read a book, we will add a summary and a synthesis of our thinking onto our personal Digital Reader's Notebook (blogs).

2) Our Digital Reader's Notebook (blogs) will be linked to our Student I-Portfolios.

**In other WORDS...** // If we read together 15 minutes at the start of every class and an average of 30 minutes a night, 5 days out of the week, that is 225 minutes...or over 3 hours of reading per week! And that's not counting the weekends! //
