The following note went home with students last week.

Dear Parents,

Raye-Allen is excited to announce that this year we will be doing a Reading Fair on November 19, 2015. The purpose of this competition is to provide students K-5 the opportunity to share their favorite fictional book through a storyboard display. The goal of the reading fair is to enhance and encourage reading at all grade levels and allow students to collaborate with their peers. Ultimately, as a result of participating in this process, students will experience a deeper enjoyment from reading and develop a lifelong love of reading.

There are 3 categories.

Individual Fiction: Grades K-2 The student will complete the project on their own.

Individual Fiction: Grades 3-5. The student will complete the project on their own.

Group/Family Fiction: Grades K-5. A class or group of students and siblings can complete the project together. These projects should portray a book appropriate to the age of the student(s). The student(s) should be knowledgeable about the book’s story elements and should have an active part in the construction of the display.

Individual and group categories will be judged closely on whether the project shows work appropriate for the age level of the student.

Please see the reverse side for a checklist.

The storyboards will be due November 19, 2015 by 9:00 A.M. The judging will be held on November 19, 2015. There will be a Library event at 5:30 p.m. Parents and students can view the storyboards and winners will be announced. There will also be a book fair being held in the library where you can purchase books.
