extra credit

You earn one extra credit point for every 100,000 words read.  Use the points to increase your grades if you score less than the maximum points on an assignment.  You may use two extra credit points for each assignment. 
For example, if you earned 7/10 points on a group project, you may use two Reading Counts points to bring your grade up to 9/10.  Your overall grade will increase from a 70% to 90% for that assignment.  All you have to do is READ!
