| What is the Key Stage 3 Reading Challenge? |
The KS3 Reading Challenge was
set up with the English Department a few years ago. Our aim is to help
you to improve your reading according to your ability - and to show
you reluctant readers that reading fiction does not have to hurt! In
fact, you are rewarded with a Highly Commended for every Reading Challenge
book you read. Plus, a certificate is awarded for each completed Level.
Each Year Group has 3 Levels:
 Bronze,
which all students are expected to complete
Silver
Gold.
Each Level has 5 categories (genres), including an 'Own Choice'. Click below for details:

Look out for this logo!
If a new book has this logo on a slip inside the front cover, it can count as a category choice. |
| Reading Logs |
| This is your
record all the books and other items, including magazines,
you have read.
You may wish to include your ideas, comments and thoughts
about what you have read. These may be one-word comments, personal
reminders to read the next in the series or remarks about a magazine
article. For
full details of how to set it out see Your
Reading Log. You will be given a copy of this to glue
in the front of your log. |
| Challenge Tasks |
| Although you do not have to write loads about every
book you read, you will be expected to complete 5 Challenge Tasks over
the year. |
