Dear Families of 3rd-6th Graders in Fullerton School District,
We are excited to announce the second WOW Challenge (World of Wisdom Literacy Challenge), a unique initiative aimed at fostering a love for reading in our students. For those students who did the first year, this will be new challenges with a new storyline.
Reading is a vital skill that not only enhances academic performance but also opens doors to new worlds, ideas, and perspectives. To support your child in this journey, we encourage you to engage with them in nightly reading and ask them to share with you their literacy tasks.
In this challenge, our students from 3rd to 6th grade will embark on an adventure through the 8 realms of the World of Wisdom, harnessing the strengths of the 8 guardians will engage in nightly reading, complete literacy tasks, and collect trading cards. Each week, they can earn 10 points per trading card extension challenge, culminating in a final challenge that allows them to earn 30 points and complete their journey.
Our Fullerton community plays a crucial role in this endeavor. We are grateful for the support our readers receive, and to add to the excitement, various locations around the city will offer new bonus bookmarks. Students Quests will contribute to a school’s and classroom’s overall points with individual prizes as well. The points contribute to the election of one of the guardians to govern the realms.
Please note, this Literacy Challenge will take place from week of October 7th to November 4th. For more information, feel free to reach out to your school librarian, principal or Director Emily McDougall. Let's unite in this literacy adventure and make reading an exciting and rewarding experience for our children!
