Reading Olympics Teams 2014 Meetings o We will have every Tuesday at lunch open for Reading Olympics members to visit the library for lunch meetings. A few Tuesday meetings will be mandatory as important decisions are made. o Members are expected to attend at least one meeting per month. Teams o There can be 8-16 people on each team. o We will begin planning now, but our team names, and rosters will be decided by the end of November. Start reading now, if you haven’t already. We have to have balanced teams. o We are permitted to bring up to three teams from NHSMS. o Each team member should commit to reading a minimum of 10 books. Team Leaders o We will be selecting four students to be team leaders. (Based on experience, drive, dependability, and commitment) o Team leaders will help create the team roster. o Team leaders will motivate members to attend meetings and to keep reading. o Team leaders will make sure that their team has all 45 books covered. We will chart the team members’ progress, so that no books are overlooked.
Thank you for expressing an interest in the Reading Olympics. This will be my 12th year to be involved in the event, but my first year to coordinate the teams. I’m looking forward to it! As I receive completion dates and locations I will send them home via email. The book list is on the back of this sheet. Please keep track of what you read and be ready to report in on Tuesdays at lunch! Mr. Smith
