Millburn Fourth Grader Wins Kindle Fire Tablet in Reading Sweepstakes

On Monday, South Mountain Elementary School fourth grader Brian Landreman was awarded a Kindle Fire tablet for winning the Summer Reading Sweepstakes.

Brian is a student in Ms. Cereste’s class. Principal Scott Wolfe drew Brian’s name from the participants of the Summer Reading Sweepstakes on Monday, Oct. 20, during the first Good Morning South Mountain Broadcast.

Local residents can watch the broadcast every Tuesday and Thursday nights at 5:30 p.m. on channel 36 (Comcast) and channel 33 (Verizon) to watch the broadcast.

All SMS students have a chance to win a Kindle Fire tablet during the summer reading program. To participate, students read as many books as they can over the summer and record the books in their summer reading log.

Choosing one of their favorite books, the students write a book review for a chance to win the Kindle, up to ten reviews for ten chances to win. The completed book reviews are submitted to Ms. Morling, the school librarian. The tablet was donated by the SMS PTO.

All students who enter summer reading logs and book reviews earn a certificate of reading excellence and a $5 credit towards a new book at the South Mountain School Fall Book Fair.
