This summer, every child who reads or is read to 500 pages or 10 books, can meet Congressman Dennis Moore at South Park in the fall and receive a signed certificate. All you have to do is read, keep track of every book or every 50 pages you complete, have your form signed by your parent, and return it to your teacher at South Park in the fall. Information about this porgram was sent home in your childs' Monday Folder. Reading Program for First Graders Students who have just finished first grade that read 12 books over the summer will be invited to a special awards ceremony. Information about this special program was sent home by the first grade teachers.
Students choose a goal, then list the books they've read to meet that goal on the reading log.
When completed, take the log to your library between July 1st and August 4th, and you will receive a certificate, bookmarks, coupons, and can select a free paperback book to keep. You can also register to win small prizes each time you visit the library. To me the meaning of D.A.R.E. is to be drug free and to make good decisions in life. Each one of these words means that you have choices to make that may affect your future. I do not need to do drugs because I am fine the way I am.
