Instructions for Reading Chart
Encourage each child/youth to read or be read to 15 minutes each evening to earn 1 point. This can be monitored by tutor, staff or volunteer. (Parents cannot be sole monitors for reading for credit. Someone else must have also observed.)
To show that this has been done, the site supervisor/volunteer or Traveling Tutor will sign off on the chart by writing their initial in the square for that day along with the number of points.
Maximum points for each day is two (2): 30 minutes of reading time. Maximum points per week is 14.
Encourage older children to read to younger children, especially after dinner.
Monday Traveling Tutors will give recognition to readers when the group gathers for dinner. This will give others who have not earned rewards incentive to work for them as well.
After awards are selected (or not), the number of points carried over should be noted on the chart. We will ask host congregations to save our charts so that they can be carried over to the next week.
20 points are required for a Cinemark or Maya Theatres movie ticket.
