Each school day read a novel (fictional text) for at least twenty minutes, and:

Monday: summarize the reading in three sentences.

Tuesday: draw a picture of a character in the reading and explain the character’s significance in three sentences.

Wednesday: list three quotations from the reading and explain one.

Thursday: find three new vocabulary in the reading and define them; quote the sentence in which you found one.  If no new vocabulary, draw a picture of the setting and explain it in three sentences.

Friday: Explain your likes and dislikes of the story in three sentences.  At the end of the log, have a parent or guardian sign the statement: “I have seen my child reading every day for at least twenty minutes.”

To get full credit, all the above must be completed daily, handed in on the first school day after the week for which the log was kept.  Half credit if one day late; no credit afterwards.
