🌞 Summer/Back to School: Student Reading Survey - TO DO

I would like to know more about you as a Reader. 😀 What do you like to read? Do you like to read in front of people or does that make you nervous? What is your favorite book? Attached you will find a Google Doc with these questions and more. Please complete the survey with as much detail as you can. You can complete it during the summer or on the first day of school.

When completing the survey:
1. Use complete sentences for the short answers. A complete sentence begins with a capital letter, has a full thought, and ends with punctuation (. ? !).
2. After writing a sentence, read it back to yourself. Does it make sense? If not correct it.
3. Check your spelling. The great part of typing online is that the program will help point out misspelled words. If a word is spelled wrong - correct it!
