BASIC RULES OF PARP

• Parents and caregivers are encouraged to be reading partners with their children. However, anyone can be a reading partner for PARP. Partners may read aloud to each other or read independently next to each other, or a combination of both.

• Partners should spend 15 minutes per day, 5 days per week reading together for a total of 75 minutes each week. It’s okay to go over time! If you miss a day, you can make it up the next day.

• Fill in the time slip each day after reading. Put the number of minutes you read in the appropriate box. If you wish, write down what you read on the back.

• Students must bring in their completed slips each Wednesday that they are due for the three weeks of PARP to earn their prizes.

• Students who complete all three weeks and bring in all their slips will earn a bonus prize.

• Note: If a student forgets to bring in a first or second-week slip, they may bring it in late, and still earn the bonus prize, as long as it is turned in by the third slip due date.

• Happy PARPing!
