35 Book Reading Challenge
Books must be at least 100 pages to count for this challenge. If a book is less than 100 pages or substantially below the student’s reading level, we have classified the book as a “quick read” book. Students may count up to 5 quick reads for the challenge. A book over 250 pages will count for 2 books in that genre; 375 = 3 books; 500 = 4 books; 600 = 5 books; etc.
When finished with a book, add it to your BiblioNasium account. You can see what genre the book fits under by looking up the book on BiblioNasium, Amazon or Scholastic. Page numbers can also be found on Amazon.
