Mabry Media Center

Twelve Days of Reading Contest

 
 

The Twelve Days of Reading contest begins December 6 and ends December 22. Students should log pages read each day and homeroom teachers should send an email stating the number of pages read each day to the Media center by noon that day.  The homeroom in each grade level that has read the most pages by noon December 22 will receive a breakfast courtesy of the Media Center.  Breakfast will be served after the holiday break.

     ONLY pages read from December 6 - December 22 are eligible for the contest and pages must be properly logged to count.

     How many total pages will Mabry read?  Make your guess, and place it in the box in the Media Center.  the student and teacher in each grade level whose guesses come closest to the actual number of pages read will win a free book.

 

Happy Reading to all!
