Some of theWork Submitted by boys to earn EXP!

Ways to earn Boys Club EXP!
  1. Read for 60 total minutes this week! That is less than 10 minutes a day! (Ideas of things to read: picture book, chapter  book, a magazine, an article, a blog post, a comic book, a graphic novel, a menu, a bulletin board, and more!)
  2. Write a paragraph about something you did this week! Did you go somewhere fun? Did you hang out with relatives? Did you stay home and play outside? Were you trapped inside because it was raining? Remember A paragraph has 5-7 sentences!

I read Too Tall Houses written by Gianna Marino
It is Fiction. The genre is fiction.
