Here’s how the program works:
Each month, beginning in October, students record the number of minutes read. (We are currently using the pizza slice =10 minutes form from Pizza Hut's Book-It Program to record the Blues minutes, too.)
Every class that reaches or goes beyond the goal of 250 minutes per month per student will be entered into a drawing for a player appearance. One classroom will be randomly selected each month to win a visit from a Blues player.
Students that reach the goal of 1,000 minutes at the end of the program will receive a free ticket to the Blues Bookworms game Thursday, March 24 vs. Edmonton (7 p.m.). As a special thank you, teachers who have the majority of their students reach the Blues Bookworms Program goal will also receive a free ticket to the Blues Bookworms game. Ticket vouchers and discount order forms for the students and teachers will be sent out at the end of the program.
Blues Bookworms All-Stars!
At the end of January, the top reader from each grade level (K-6), OUT OF ALL PARTICIPATING SCHOOLS, based on overall number of minutes read, will win the Blues Bookworms All-Star Award and four tickets to celebrate their accomplishments during the Blues Bookworms game Thursday, March 24 vs. Edmonton (7 p.m.). Winners will be highlighted on the jumbotron during the game, and also on www.stlouisblues.com.
