Bikes for Books!!
Parents,
May is Bikes for Books month this year at North Bend Elementary. To celebrate reading, the local Masons have donated two great bikes as two prizes for students spending time reading. The library has been showcasing these bikes, one for a boy and one for a girl with helmets included, in the library for all to see.
The Bikes for Books reading celebration will begin on Wednesday, May 1st and end Friday, May 31st.
Here is how it works!
Each participating student will submit official reading slips to their classroom teacher after completing 100 minutes of reading. PLEASE send in chunks of 100 minutes even. For example, the total could be 100, 200, or 300 on the reading slip. Parents, please sign the slip to validate the reading minutes your child has participated in.
For each 100 minutes, a ticket will be placed in a boys or girls container, with the student’s name on it, to be put in the drawing for good books AND for the two bikes!!
Reading minutes are minutes students read for their classroom teacher each night, reading for pleasure beyond teacher requirements, reading out loud to someone else, or listening to someone else read out loud to them.
More official reading slips may be printed from the library webpage at www.nbeschool.com , picked up from your child’s classroom, or from the school library.
If you have any questions please contact Mrs. Gardunia at garduniaj@svsd410.org.
Happy Reading and Good Luck to you!
