What a wonderful idea!  Thanks for sharing, Lisa.  It looks as though the kids had a lot of fun with it.
Best,
Cheryl

Hi everyone! 

I thought I'd share some of the results from my Summer Reading Challenge that I had shared with you last spring. 

It's been a busy and unusual fall, but we finally were able to recognize the students who worked hard to complete our challenge. 

I LOVE the way it came out! We will revise slightly and try again next summer. Now that we have some examples, we will aim to get more participation. 

Here's a short presentation  (less than 2 minutes) I put together with sample slides from some of the students who participated. I really enjoyed seeing the variety of books and places that my students read all summer long! 

If you are curious, here's the blank slideshow we asked students to fill in and then submit in the fall.
