Welcome to the Read-a-Thon!
We are excited to begin our Kaiser & Woodland Read-A-Thon Fundraiser sponsored by KWPFO (Kaiser Woodland Parent Faculty Organization). This year's theme is "READ for the Stars" -- a theme that inspires our students to set their sights on the loftiest of goals and then achieve them! Whether your student is reading independently or being read to, we hope your family takes this time to ENJOY a good book, a poem, a magazine, an audiobook, or even a recipe!
-
- Collect online donations from family and friends via our easy-to-use fundraising page at mybooster.com. See below for instructions on how to set up your account.

- Click the menu in the top right and click on 'Log Minutes Read'.
- Enter the date on which you read.
- Enter the number of minutes read as a whole number (i.e. 30 minutes would be entered as 30, 1 hour and 30 minutes would be entered as 90 minutes, etc.)
- Click 'Log Minutes Read'.
- Click on your Log to view and edit minutes read.
On "Mini Prize Mondays" - October 10th and 17th - teachers will distribute rewards for students who have logged enough minutes to reach the next "SPACE" level:
-
- Lunar Level - 30 minutes - Solar System Bookmark
-
- Red Planet Reader - 70 minutes - Space Pencil
-
- Meteor Mark - 120 minutes - Astronaut Eraser
-
- Solar Stratum - 190 minutes - Rocket LED Flashlight Keychain
-
- Galactical Grade - 270 minutes - Galaxy Ball
-
- Black Hole - 370 minutes - Galaxy Fidget Spinner
These totals may seem like a lot, but with about 30 minutes of reading a day (about the length of a TV show) over the two week program, your student can achieve EVERY reward!
