Hi everyone! Summer's winding down, school is back in session, and Reading Challenge 17 will be ending at the end of September. Let's start discussing what we'd like to see in Reading Challenge #18!

That's a fun idea!

I like it, too!

[Angela Sunshine]

Anyone willing to step up to the plate for challenge 18? We have a fun suggestion already! Kari?? :)

[Kari]

If I didn't have Pre-calc this term, I would. But math kills me and it is taking up sooooo much of my time. If nobody steps up by the 18th, I will take another look at it though and see if I can work it out. :)

[Kari]

Do you already have a form that helps keep track of points? I'm still trying to work out my schedule, but it looks like I might be able to take charge.

[Angela Sunshine]

I don't have one Kari, but I usually just do a spreadsheet with a page for each person. I could help get one together for you if you want. (Not sure if it would be set up the way you like though, my husband says I organize things "differently", lol)

[Kari]

Haha. Hmm... I am told the same thing. :)

No worries. I can come up with one, I just wasn't sure if there was a standard one normally used. I will step up for #18.

[Angela Sunshine]

Hurray for Kari!! :)

I took the last challenge off (I needed a break!) so I will be fresh and ready for this one!

[Kari]

Alrighty... post is up for recording points. Hope everything makes sense. Let me know if I need to adjust anything.
