This 4th grader had the highest Accelerated Reader Points in her grade and won a Kindle! At the beginning of the school year she set this as her goal but about a month ago she told me she was going to stop reading because she was behind someone by about 100 points. We encouraged her to not stop reading and told her it was OK if she didn't win.
Two days before the final awards assembly her teacher text me and told me she had the most points of any girl in her grade (335!) and it would be a surprise for her. All the top readers from each class were on stage, Sheridan even thought the other girl's teacher had said her total wrong. It was so fun to see her face. I'm proud of her hard work and happy for her to have this good ending to her school year.
