40 BOOK CHALLENGE
Do you remember when reading was fun? The 40 Book Challenge is designed to put the joy back into independent reading. It is a vetted program from The Book Whisperer by Donalyn Miller. We all know that reading touches every aspect of learning and the more we intentionally practice this discipline, the more successful we will be in all areas of life. Reading is EVERYWHERE!
The 40 Book Challenge is just that – a personal CHALLENGE. It is not a mandatory and it is not for a grade. It is designed to encourage students, teachers, and families to embrace a culture of reading, to explore genres, and to challenge themselves.
You can find the instructional presentation, reading log, and reading form below. Check back often to see the 2024-2025 reading totals. Happy Reading, Mustangs!
