Books Are Fun Book Blast

Dear COUCH ELEMENTARY Families,

Exciting news! We are partnering with Books Are Fun and their Book Blast program to help build our students' home libraries. For over 30 years, Books are Fun has been a trusted partner in promoting literacy.

Today, our students learned about the Book Blast Program and the importance of having their own books at home. Tonight, we are asking you to take 7 minutes to support our Student Home Library initiative. Click Here: https://app.booksarefun.com/CouchR1Sch65778

Here are the steps:

1. Click the link above.
2. Register your student(s).
3. Send invitations to at least 10 friends or family members to support our students (Don't worry, all the information you provide is secure and only used for this program.)
4. Need help registering? Watch this short step by step video: https://www.bb.booksarefun.com/how-to-complete

Win a trip to Disney

Our school has been selected for an incredible opportunity. For every supporter who clicks your student’s contribution link during Book Blast, you’ll earn one entry for a chance to win a trip to Disney. For example, if five different people click the link, your family gets five entries into the drawing.

Pro Tip: After sending invitations, follow up with a phone call to make sure they received the message.

Why I love this program:

• It’s guaranteed to put new, age-appropriate books into the hands of every student.
• 100% of all contributions go toward new books and classroom supplies.
• The book list is fantastic! It's attached, check it out.
• It will take you less than 10 minutes and there is NO financial requirement from you.

More books in your homes equals more pages being read. That's the goal. We're hoping for 100% participation. Want to see Book Blast in action? Watch this news clip from Fulton Elementary: Fulton Elementary News Clip.

Thank you for helping our school and community,
Mrs. Wiggs
