REBECCA CAUDILL YOUNG READERS’ BOOK AWARD

Book Completion Verification Form

Please choose, by circling, one of these six questions and answer it on the bottom of this form in three to five legible, complete sentences. Your responses should demonstrate a good understanding of the book you read. If you’d rather talk about than write about a book, you may discuss it with Mrs. Sherry, Mrs. Speckmann or your LA teacher; please try to make arrangements ahead of time. You may meet with another Jefferson staff member, but you must first ask him/her for permission. If you choose the verbal option, simply have the staff member write on this form indicating that a satisfactory discussion occurred. Or, you can bring this form to one of the RCBYA lunch groups and get it stamped by one of the attending staff members. OR, you can respond to one of these questions on-line by going to the REBECCA CAUDILL ON-LINE RESPONSE (Go to www.ncusd203.org/jefferson, then click on JJHS Weblinks. The RCBYA link is in the top box).Once the form is complete in any of these ways, come to the LRC to staple it to your contract. Happy Reading!
