Rent a Reader is a community service opportunity I offer my class at least twice a year, assigned as a book report. Children choose a book to read to a k-3 class. Children are assigned to the class they'll read to. Both forms are filled in . Cover note is attached and letters are put in teachers' mailboxes.
Teacher fills in read day and time, keeps one form and returns other to the reader.
Reader tapes form to desk as a reminder, plus a master list of all readers, times, days, is posted in class. Children practice reading to each other and go read at their assigned time. If a child misses their time, they must go to the teacher, explain the problem and set up a new read time. Nice for cross age activities. Usually one or two kids end up volunteering, during their recess time, to read or assist in the primary classroom on a weekly basis.
