Kindergarten
Reading
Program
The kindergarten reading program is designed to increase your child’s love of books and reading! Two reading forms are attached; additional forms will be available in the classroom as needed. You may turn in completed reading forms in at any time by leaving them in your child’s take-home folder. When completed forms are turned in, your child will receive three soaring points which they can trade in for Eagle Store prizes, as well as advance their reading train along the train tracks. The distance your child’s train advances along the tracks will be a major factor in the reading award to be given out at the awards ceremony in the Spring.
Goal:
The Kindergarten goal is to read five books per week (10-15 minutes per night). This can be accomplished by your student being read to, shared reading, or your student reading on their own. Only forms with a minimum of five books will be counted to receive soaring points and advance trains.
Helpful Hints for a Successful Year:
It’s easy to fall behind on filling out the reading charts! Keep a pen and copies of the reading forms wherever you typically read to your child so that you can fill out the forms as you go. If don’t have a specific reading place, keep a form in different areas of the house where they will be handy.
Getting your child involved in the process will help you stay on top of the program! Frequently discuss with them their train’s progress, and the soaring points they will earn when they turn in reading forms. Children who are eager to achieve a goal become very motivated to do whatever work is involved! As they are become able, they may even enjoy filling out the forms for you. J
