Fun ideas:
Our K-8 was challenged to read or be read-to throughout the day and accumulate enough pages (1 page per mile) to go across the United States. The whole day was focused on reading. For middle school, textbooks counted as well. If a class of 20 heard a 40 page book that as 800 miles.Progress was tracked on a large map in the library window throughout the day. The window was in the most-traveled pathway in the school. They "read" 13 round-trips. It was very visual with yard criss-crossing the United States. -Pam O., Teacher Librarian, Poly HS, Long Beach, CA.
