4th Grade Reading Log
Each student is expected to read a minimum of 20 minutes daily at home. The students must write the name of the book they read, and complete a sentence summarizing what they have read EACH day. Parents will need to sign the reading log on a DAILY basis. There will be one book report due each month. The book reports focus on different genres of books to give students the opportunity to try new things. Due dates are clearly given in the Reading Log, and there are examples of each type of report.
