2. Why do we have a fund-raiser
for the library?
Raise
money for:
buying new library books (students are
surveyed for specific titles they want.)
buying prizes for Book Bugs program,
buying prizes for the Library Crew, etc.
What else??
4. How does this work?
1)
Get money pledges from family, friends
of the family, people that you know.
2) Read for 2 weeks and record the number
of books read. **Since you read longer,
chapter books, every 25 pages of a book
will count as one book.
3) After the 2 weeks are up, collect money
from pledges and return it to the library.
5. When are we doing this?
Starts
the beginning of February
Collect
pledge money by third week of
February.
6. Reading Packets…
Packets have an envelope to collect pledge
money, a pledge sheet, a reading tally sheet
to keep track of books and a letter to parents
explaining the Read-a-thon.
