Have you thought of having a raffle in addition to the small prize? We used to seek donations to make "summer fun bags." The bags would contain a combination of reading and fun prizes. We collected the students reading graphs and pulled one per class. This seemed keep the excitement going to some degree. Although, we definitely found the the younger grades did a much better job of participating every year.

Hi. I work in a k-5 school as a reading consultant. We currently have a monthly alendar that kids turn in to get a small prize. At the end of the year the get ecognized, so on and so forth. However, the program is old and not very nticing. The younger ones are usually the ones turning in their calendars but ostly it is ineffective anymore. I would like to revitalize a school wide eading program. Does anyone have fresh and exciting ideas that is easily ecordable but effective? I would live to hear ideas out there.
