🦉 5 Steps to be a Read-A-Thon All-Star!
Ready to build the coolest Owlvatar at Clinton? Follow these tips to make this your best reading month ever!
1. Find Your "Reading Zone" 🛋️
Whether it’s a cozy chair, a fort made of blankets, or under the covers with a flashlight, find a place where you love to go on adventures through books!
2. Set a Daily Goal ⏰
Try to read for at least 20 minutes every day. You’ll be surprised how quickly those minutes add up!
- Tip: Set a timer or read right before bed so you never forget.
3. Log Those Minutes and Books! 💻
Don’t let your hard work go uncounted! Ask a grown-up to help you log into readafun.com every night.
- Offline? Use the Reading Log to track your minutes, then ask your teacher for help logging them at school.
- Bonus: Answer the Comprehension Questions on the site to earn extra points for your Owlvatar gear!
4. Be a "Cheer" Leader 📣
Use the Readafun platform to send "Cheers" to your classmates. It feels great to know your friends are rooting for you, and it earns you points, too!
5. Invite Your "Fan Club" ✉️
Your family and friends want to cheer you on! Ask a parent to help you use the "Invite Sponsors" tool on your dashboard to send emails or texts to grandparents, aunts, uncles, and neighbors. Their support helps the PTA raise vital funds for our school!
🎧 All Readers Welcome!
Students of all reading levels are encouraged to participate. You can even earn minutes by listening to audiobooks!
Access the school's catalog of over 6,000 titles through MackinVIA using your school login.
