SESC Book Blast November Reading Event!

Here's the Skinny On The Challenge:

Resources to Help You!

How it works:

  1. Read: Encourage your students to read 20 minutes a day for 30 days, totaling 600 minutes. Students can read physical or digital books, and reading more than 600 minutes is allowed! Students can read extra the next day to make up the minutes if a day is missed. The goal is 600 or more for the month.

  2. Track: Use the provided reading trackers to monitor progress (or make one of your own). Trackers can be found on the next document tab, or  HERE.

  3. Celebrate: The top-reading classroom in each district/charter will win a pizza party courtesy of PBS Utah and SESC!

Additional Incentives:

  • Utah Fun Pass: Students who read over 600 minutes can earn a FREE Utah Fun Pass for FREE and discounted admission to popular Utah attractions.

  • Promotional Materials: To engage students and parents, utilize the resources provided by our media specialist, Sara Bryant. They can be found on the next doc tab, or  HERE.

We can’t wait to celebrate your reading success with a pizza party🍕 for the winning classroom in each district. (Winners are determined by the highest percentage of students who meet the 600 minutes goal.)


Also, please also remind your students that ANY students who read over 600 minutes can earn a FREE Utah Fun Pass for FREE and discounted admission to popular Utah attractions.
