February “Heart” Reading Challenge

Spreading kindness and love on the Second Grade Hall!

All you have to do is read as many books with your family as you can before February 28th! As a class we will see how many books we can read together!  Each student will receive 4 hearts in their folder to start the challenge. Students must complete the 4 hearts by February 28th. Please write the title and author of each book on the front of the heart and return in your student’s Black Folder daily to add to our wall. Once your student turns in their first 4 hearts they can receive more to work on!

Let’s Spread Kindness Together!
