Our grade level requires that students read every night for 15 mins. The student is to record the book title in the agenda and have a parent sign it. I send home a book each night for the students and have prizes for the students who reach the goal of reading 15 days out of the month. The prize is a pizza hut coupon, free lunch with me, and 45 playing time on the Playstation 3 during the monthly celebration. I have reminded parents about this assignment, write it as nightly homework, and discuss it at conferences. Please help. I only have 3 students who make the goal every month. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Are the students choosing what books to read or are you assigning them a book? I would let the students choose books to read and or maybe read an excerpt from a book to motiviate them to want to finish it at home. May you can make smaller goals that will make winning more accessible for your non-readers
