Summer Reading Log

Created by

Chapter & Chalk

Simple reading log to be used for students of all ages who are trying to keep up with what they have read over the summer. There are two options- one with the stars for students to rate their books and another without the stars. The books can be used to write the titles of the books read in them, but also give the students the chance to color to keep up with their reading.

About the store

Experience

Teaching style

I love to use class novels as a way to get students to read. I focus on working with the students one on one to help them find novels that they will enjoy and therefore help them to become stronger students. I love giving students the chance to talk and learn together instead of just relying on the teacher to give them the answer. I like letting students have experiences while they are trying to learn to help them truly get the material. I don't expect or want my library to be silent, but rather would like the students to talk and interact to have a positive experience.
