100 BOOK CHALLENGE

Year 6

September 2024 — June 2025 NAME: _________________________________________________ FORM: _________________________________________________ ENGLISH TEACHER(S): ____________________________________

This is your reading log for the school year. Everything you read between September and next June should be recorded in this booklet. Please take great pride in it and keep it up to date.

To qualify for the awards, you need to read 10 books from the selection inside for Bronze; 15 books for Silver; and 20 books for Gold. These must all be books you’ve read this school year.

There are also spaces to record other books you have read, books you didn’t finish, and reminders of books you’d like to read in the future. Your English teacher should be able to pick this up at any time and get a good sense of how your reading is progressing.

Track your reading across the school year...

Tips from library book talks...

Failed to finish...

It is useful to keep a note of books you read 50+ pages of, but then failed to finish.

Five-Star Reviews Go Here...

Keep a note of all the books you have read this year which you’ve awarded the maximum five stars. To be listed here, you must have totally loved it and want to recommend it to your friends.

Accessit: Online Catalogue Reviews...

To qualify for one of the awards, you need also to write 50-word reviews on the library catalogue system Accessit. Keep a note of all the books you have submitted reviews for since September.

To Read: Books on my Radar...

Across the school year, it is a good idea to write down books which you hope to read and which have caught your eye. This could be because a friend or teacher recommended it, you watched a film version, or saw an advertisement in the library or a book shop.

Books I Have Already Read...

Write down the names of any of the books you have already read before September 2024, as they do not count towards the reading challenge. Your progress will be monitored from the books you read between September - June.

Pathway to the Gold Award...

10 BOOKS: BRONZE, 15 BOOKS: SILVER, 20 BOOKS: GOLD Carefully keep track of the books you have read on the way to the Bronze, Silver or Gold Awards. These books must be on the 100 Book Challenge list.
