Reading Counts Quiz Challenge

Have you ever taken your reading log, went to the lab, logged on to Reading Counts, only to find you cannot find a quiz on any of the books you have been reading this year? It's frustrating! Well, we are now going to do something about it. For the next two weeks, we are going to have a Reading Counts quiz challenge. The challenge is that you need to make a 10 question, multiple choice quiz over any books from your reading log. Here's what you will need to include: the name of the book, the author's name, 10 multiple choice questions with 4 possible answers, and star the correct answer. It is very important that you really ask good questions about the book. Try to think like a teacher and ask questions about the main character, their family, the problem, the climax, the solution. You can also ask questions about the setting and other characters in the book. Make sure that you spell all names correctly.

The class with the most use able quizzes made in the next two weeks will receive a class reward that we will decide on together. Make sure to put your name on your quiz and check Reading Counts to make sure there is not a quiz already in there. Please turn all quizzes into me personally.
