Many of our parents want to make the "read for 20 min./night"
more meaningful and family oriented, so we show them how to
use the Character Scrapbook website when their child is
reading a piece of fiction. Filling in the lines about what
the child has learned about a character, the character's
achievements, etc. helps student and parent focus on
important details while doing the reading. The graphics are
great so everyone enjoys the site and the printed work can be
saved in a year-long file.
