Read-and-Feed-A-Thon November

Yeah. I loved these and never got to complete them. Plus, I'm only reading like one book every two months during school. even literature books due as assignments.




For those new and those who participated two months ago, a lot were gradually interested in a full week of reading as much books as you want. it's kinda like snacking on a whole bunch of chocolate bars, fudgesicles, soda pop, and skittles, before your monthly weigh-in. A CHEAT WEEK. Because, hey, when your teacher asks you how many book you read this year you can finally say, hey i read a total of 50 books, 2 every month.....and then 16 last week. Your whole classroom (or every co-worker) could gasp even.
But let's cut to the chase. you read, you snack, your own private avalanche of crumpled papers, scribbled loose leaf, and banana peels on your couch surface. But there are rules so let us not fool you, yet again:
Read-And-Feed-Guidelines November
1. Minimum amount of book page
The minimum for the book you can finish must be 20 pages. It can't be a road sign, but it can be a small manuel or a really long letter from your mom telling you how irresponsibe you are.
2. Must record your own data.
You have to create a topic for your data in this month's folder before even beginning to read. and you have to sign up. I will be the one creating your topics, but you just have to be the eyes and ears of your own novels and record what you've read prelimitary
3. Don't take the title literally.
feeding is another way of saying snack time. you control how long you read and when you read. Most of all you control how much fun you have reading. So don't feel overrushed to completing a stack of books in just this week. It's 20 pages. Fill your mouth with tootsie rolls and knowledge.
4. Record your data precisely as followed.
For your data and how you record it, it is pretty simple.
record it like this:
Your name:
Your book:
Author:
Pages in book:
Pages you've read:
5. In case some adjustments are made, this read and feed will be extended from November 20th-December 21st.
