Here is our Reading Sticker Chart

Posted in 2007/2008 Homeschool Prep

Okay, I thought I would share this just for fun. Here is our Reading Chart that I mentioned in my post below to help encourage the joy of reading mainly for my Superman but also for T-Rex. Each box has a colored sticker on it representing the one put on the chart for reading so many books. At the bottom I left the rewards blank for me to fill in. Here is my reward system: I will have 4 little boxes or bags filled with little strips of paper, on the paper will be written their reward. So for 7 or more in the weekly rewards box/bag could be: a cool piece of candy, a free pass to Momma/Daddy time, movie from library, coke from down the street, game time and ect. The rewards will increase with the amount of books consumed. I am excited about this and pray that they will be encouraged and I will be sure to stay on top of this system.

Have any ideas you would like to share or add pleas leave me a much appreciated comment...

I made a chart for each of my boys when we went through Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons.

After each lesson, they got to put a little sticker on the lesson number. Every 10th number was in green and they received a treat (piece of gum or candy). At the end of 100, we all celebrated with a trip to Chuck E Cheese. BTW, neither of them ever made it to 100. By the time they reached lesson 70-something, they were well on their way to real books with no problem.

FUN! I love rewarding my children. I don't do it often enough as I'm pretty critical by nature. Terrible, I know. But it is a real blessing to be there for both the big and little steps in their learning... and *I* want to be the one that they hug and high-five when they're excited.
