10 K Book Race

The deadline for the 10 K Book Race is May 3, 2014. If you are participating, it is your responsibility to keep track of book titles, authors, and page numbers. What I will ask you for is a total tally of page numbers and a list of titles and authors. This is the only way I will accept it and it will count for rewards. Please submit an email, with 10 K Book Race as the subject and have your complete list from the beginning up until the deadline. Thank you for your participation.

I will not be requiring a book report this last quarter. However, I will randomly assign Independent Reading assignment. The expectation is still for you to read one complete novel this 9 weeks. We only have 7 more to go.
