Hofius Summer Reading Challenge

Summer is the perfect time to read, and now you can earn prizes at the same time!

Here's how it works:

  1. Beginning May 18, read any book you want that you haven't read before. (Yes, graphic novels & audiobooks count too!)

  2. Post a book review on Flipgrid (instructions below).

  3. For each review you post, your name will be entered into a drawing for some great prizes - gift cards, food, library privileges, & more!

  4. Read and review at least 8 books and earn a pizza party when we return to school!

  5. All reviews must be submitted by September 13.

  6. If you don't have access to create Flipgrids this summer, you may write your reviews and either email them or turn them in to Mrs. Nalley in August.
