I’m sharing a free printable reading log and planner to help you organize all the books for kids that you want to read in the new year.
Have you ever had a friend tell you about the greatest book they just read to their kids and you think I need to remember that title? Then, you forget. Happens to me quite often.
Did you ever dream of documenting all the great read-alouds you share with your class or for families who read with their kids? Maybe the first 100 books your child ever heard or the first books he read on his own? Me too.
Would you like to set reading goals for your child, family, or class and actually remember the ones you set when it’s July? Yep, been there.
I’ve got you covered.
Yep, I’ve created your dream printable reading log and planner. And, get this… It’s FREE for YOU for being a newsletter subscriber. Think of it as my little gift to help you read more with the kids.
So, let me tell you what you’ll find in the free 18-page download. You can listen to me talk about it in this video or just keep reading. This was the 2017 version I talk about in the video, but everything is still relevant.

Thank you Jodie Rodriguez for your dedication to placing these together for your followers before the holidays. Your awesome!!! I know this will come in handy with my fIrst grader since he lives to read, math, computers and school all together. I want to work with him on reading, words, vowels, nouns and adjectives. Also, help him organize things a little bit more in order to make things easier.
