Reading+Challenge



=RULES AND REGULATIONS =
 * An //Olympic Reading Event// is represented by one of the five colored rings of the Olympic logo found on your Reading Event Log. There is a Blue Reading Event, Yellow Reading Event, Black Reading Event, Green Reading Event and a Red Reading Event. Follow the order identified by numbers. The reading requirements for each reading event within a grade level is exactly the same. (Make sure you indicate which Olympic Reading Event you are currently working on by checking the colored ring on your //Reading Event Log //.)
 * Record the time you spend reading for fun on your grade-level //Reading Event Log //. Use the back of the reading log if necessary. (List what you read and the time you spend reading. You can count time when another person reads to you and when you listen to "stories on tape".)
 * Make sure a parent or guardian puts their initials on your reading log every time you read.
 * A //Reading Event Log// is successfully finished when you have completed the required minutes for your grade level. (To enrich the participant's reading experience, the Olympic Reading Center encourages Olympic participants to discuss the book(s) that they are reading with an adult. Grade-level book discussion questions have been created by the Olympic Reading Center coaches to guide your family book discussions.)
 * When completed, a //Reading Event Log// must be signed off by a parent or guardian and turned into the Olympic Reading Center's library.
 * Your reading success will then be recorded by the Olympic Reading Committee and your name will be placed on an Olympic Championship Plaque in the center's foyer display case.
 * After you complete five //Reading Event Logs//, and your name is on five different colored Olympic Champion Plaques, you receive a gold medal.
 * After receiving one gold medal, you begin working towards another.
