Scholastic Reading Counts! Is there a quiz for my book?
Hudson Library's collection does NOT include every book that has a quiz. 
 

Basics

  • Reading Counts is a reading incentive program.  Reading Counts supplements Reading Workshop. 
    Books read for Reading Counts are to be included on students' Reading Logs.
  • The goal for the Reading Counts program is that students find success and enjoyment in reading
    and apply library skills in the process.
  • Students choose appropriate Reading Counts books, read the books completely and carefully,
    and take computerized quizzes.  Quizzes should only be taken on books just finished. 
  • The library staff will provide students with information and assistance.

DDC, Millionaires, TDC

  • Double Digit Club (DDC) is an expectation for each 2nd-5th grade student whereby students
    read 10 Reading Counts books appropriate for their reading level and pass quizzes on them with
    an overall average of 80%+. 
  • DDC members receive lapel pins for their blazers and ring the DDC bell during library class. 
  • After reaching the expectation of DDC, students can set their own Reading Counts goals.
  • Millionaires (1,000,000 words) and Triple Digit Club (100 books) are possible long-range goals
    in students' Reading Logs and/or through their participation in Reading Counts.  Double Digit Club
    in Reading Counts is a prerequisite for Millionaires or TDC in Reading Log or Reading Counts.
