The Last AR Sounds Game (for a while)

I know I've posted a few blogs on this subject, but I had to post this final one, at least for a while... At the elementary school, they do Accelerated Reading to encourage kids to read. Once you read a book, you take a quiz on the book and get points for that. Based on your grade level, there are different amount of points you get for prizes, etc. For the 4th & 5th graders, they have to get 100 points to attend the Nashville Sounds Game.

Christian made it all 4 years he was able to go. Rebecca has made it one previous year but wasn't quite as motivated as Christian was. However, this year, she decided she wanted to go, since it would be her last year. She also was reading the Harry Potter series, so that made it much easier to get to the point level faster. We were very proud of her and so Matthew & I were both able to go with her.

We didn't take many pictures, but I'm posting the ones that I did (first two) and then she took the others. Assuming Julianna will make her points in 2nd grade when she's there, we'll have 4 yeas before we go again.....
