Superstar Reading Log Update: Flexibility and Choice for Families

We want to express our sincere gratitude for the dedication and time you put into supporting your child’s reading practice at home.  Your commitment makes a significant difference in their literacy development.  We understand that every family has a unique schedule and routine, and sometimes finding the right time and method to track reading can be a challenge.  To provide more flexibility and make the monthly reading log completion as convenient as possible, we are excited to offer two distinct options starting this month:

Option 1: Digital Reading Log:   https://forms.gle/bshU4hcReq2WGJ8r5

  • For families who prefer to use their phones, tablets, or computers, the digital log offers a quick, accessible way to record books and minutes.
  • Benefits: No papers to lose, easy access on the go, and automatically tracks submissions for us.

Option 2: Traditional Paper Reading Log

  • If you prefer a physical record or find that a paper copy works best for your routine, we are happy to continue providing the traditional paper log format.
  • How it works: The paper log template was sent home in your child’s folder this week.  
  • Benefits: A tangible record and no need for digital access.

Next Steps: Please Choose Your Preference

Please take a moment to discuss with your student which option works best for your family.  Both logs require the same amount of reading,  and the paper log is due on the last school day of the month.  Our goal is to support a lifelong love of reading, and we hope this added choice helps make reading logs a smooth and enjoyable part of your evening routine.
