Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

Mrs. Sorensens class had a Reading Superbowl. Every night the students would read and then have thier parent sign the football saying how many minutes their child read. 

The class was divided into two teams the 49er's and the Ravens.  Which ever team read the most minutes the night before would get a touchdown for that day.  The 49er's won the class challenge by 1 touchdown.  Anyone who participated received a superbowl "ring" and the 49er's had a party for being the winning team.
