[LM_NET] AR GIMMICKS . . . MIDDLE SCHOOL

[Deb Walters <dwalters@BWSD.K12.WI.US>]

Hi Everyone:

 

My principal just came back from a principal's meeting and is all
excited about promoting AR more in our middle school.  One of the other
principal maintains that all his students read at an above average
reading ability because of AR . . . could be true because the more you
read the better you get.    We have the program but have had a very low
key approach to it.   I'm wondering what gimmicks you have used to
promote the program, reward students, etc.  I'm particularly looking for
ways to reward the kids that are not food related.  Any input would be
appreciated . . . thanks!
