Introducing #MondayMinutesGoal

Parents and teachers, in an effort to log as many minutes as possible through the Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge AND to break the world record for summer reading, we’ve got a special weekly goal for young readers. See below for details!

Every Monday we’ll be announcing a “#MondayMinutesGoal,” the number of minutes for kids to read together in one week (by the following Monday).  We’re hoping that if every child participating in the Summer Reading Challenge ramps up their reading each week, we’ll reach our goals!

Whether your child or student is reading independently aloud or together with you, let’s share their success and keep the momentum going! Here’s how:

  1. have your child log his/her minutes on the SRC website or on a paper log/piece of paper
  2. take a picture of him/her proudly displaying their minutes
  3. share it on social using #MondayMinutesGoal and #SummerReading!

We can’t wait to see what you come up with.

So, let’s get started! This week’s goal, if summer readers choose to accept it: help us read 12 MILLION minutes by Monday, June 29th!

That means we need to get that counter to read 133,385,000 minutes. Ready? Set...READ!
