Schools from all over South Carolina will be keeping track of how many minutes are read this summer.  Last summer with more than 300 schools participating, 31,954,924 pages were read. 
 
Make copies of this reading log to record all the minutes read this summer.  The readings may be from books, magazines, newspapers, online readings (blogs, wikis, etc.).
