Reading Contract
For February 2nd Through March 4th

I, _________________________ will read at home every day and will keep a log of my daily reading minutes in my agenda. My goal is to read ______________ (a minimum of 400) minutes for the time period of February 2nd through March 4th. My new reading range is

_____________-_____________

My parent(s) will check my reading minutes and sign my agenda at the end of every day. I will return it to school daily so my teacher can check it, too.

I will need to pass enough Accelerated Reading test(s) to earn the opportunity to participate in the second trimester reward. This reward is a trip to the National Hockey Center. I currently have ______________AR points accumulate for the second trimester and need to earn _____________ more points to meet my 12-point goal. I must earn at least a 60% accuracy rate on each test for it to qualify as passed. As of today, my overall second trimester accuracy score is ___________________.

In addition, I will need to complete thirteen of the sixteen grid activities on the back of this contract. The items written in bold type are mandatory. Also, this is the month of kindness and love. Our Home to School Connection will be 14 plus one. This task involves counting backwards from fourteen by twos and giving yourself and another person one compliment when you feel blue, stressed, or angry. Hopefully from there on, your feelings will be calm, your thinking will be under control, and your next action to your current situation will be inspired to search for reasonable compromises that have positive outcomes.


I will also need to sign up to participate as a broadcasting team member on WAEL. My task will be to assist in helping to present the pertinent information for the day.

Finally, I understand that to be eligible for a March reading contract reward, I must read, sign, and comply with the terms of this contract.


Remember: There are other school wide reading goals and rewards for the month of February and this monthly contract is meant to help you stay on task and accomplish these goals, too. Good luck and enjoy your success!
