and GROW the love of reading in your school
• Encourage children to read for pleasure. • Provide access to hundreds of books for all interests and ages.
• Offer value and prices to suit every family budget.
• Gain learning and literacy resources for your school with Scholastic Rewards.
PARTNERING WITH READING SCHOOLS Our goal is to help put more books and resources into schools and classrooms. Whenever you participate in a Scholastic offering—whether it’s through Book Club, Book Fairs, or both—a percentage of your total order spend will be given back to you to spend on additional educational resources.
Providing the ACCESS and CHOICE to have Kids Reading More! Scholastic Clubs and Fairs bring the opportunity for students to engage with books and build home libraries. Having ACCESS and opportunities to own their own books is not a given for your students. Clubs and Fairs enable book ownership of the books that students choose for themselves; that they love. Among children aged 6–8, a majority of kids (74%) say they would read more if they could find more books that they like. —Kids & Family Reading Report, 2016
2
Providing constant ACCESS and OPPORTUNITY to own books they love. Eight times a year, we offer a Book Club selection of children’s books at discounted prices. They are carefully curated to get children reading for pleasure. Book Club is the easiest and most affordable way to offer students ACCESS to the best in children’s books for the home. By running Book Club, a school can earn a percentage of the order value back in Scholastic Rewards.
In each issue of Book Club: • F ind the latest book in a series. • D iscover new releases from a favourite author.
• G et free delivery to the school.
An immersive hands on discovery experience. Many a reader’s story starts with the ACCESS and CHOICE enabled by a Book Fair. Hosting a Book Fair is a wonderful way to celebrate reading and earn valuable resources for your school.
On Every Book Fair: • D iscover books to suit every reading level, interest and budget. • Is a fun opportunity for children to see, touch and connect with books they want to read.
• G enerous commissions—every book sold at the Book Fair earns free books for your school.
