WHAT IT DOES

What is a reading reward wheel?

A reading reward wheel is a random picker that chooses one adult-approved reward after a reader reaches a clear and achievable literacy goal.

Add bookmark choices, book-picking turns, read-aloud privileges, praise prompts, stickers, creative activities, or small celebrations. Then use the visible spin to recognize reading minutes, completed books, regular practice, fluency work, vocabulary progress, or another individual goal.

FLUENCY

WORD WORK

Vocabulary progress

Celebrate new vocabulary, word investigations, spelling practice, context clues, definitions, or creative use of recently learned words.

BOOK CHOICE

Reading privileges

Spin for the next book, reading spot, read-aloud selection, story theme, bookmark, library choice, or other adult-approved privilege.
