Digital Reading Fair
Goal
This competition is to provide students with the opportunity to present their favorite fiction/non-fiction book in a “fair” atmosphere with digital display methods. Reading instruction emphasizes that students read complex texts at grade level as well as the reading of non-fiction texts for understanding of information. Writing emphasizes the understanding of the information read. By participating in this digital reading fair, it is hoped that the students will experience an enjoyable technology opportunity and develop a love for reading and writing.
