The elementary school has several fun programs to reward readers. Nathan, our voracious reader, has recently decided to work on the Newbery medal contest. For every 5 Newbery books (award winners or honor books) the student reads, they get a medal. The contest is for 4th grade and up, but 3rd graders can participate after January if the teacher approves it.
I think Nathan started the Newbery books in February, and he has already passed off 10 books! (Not a Newbery, but he just read The Hobbit in about 1 week. He LOVES to read!)

Today was the school assembly where Nathan got both his bronze and silver medals. Way to go, Nathan!
