VPK Reading Relay

Why Participate in the VPK Reading Relay Challenge?

Get ready to embark on a reading adventure! Here’s why the VPK Reading Relay is the perfect way to make reading fun for your classroom:

• Spark a love for reading: Watch your students dive into stories and get hooked on books!
• Team up for success: Unite the class with everyone working together toward a common reading goal.
• Celebrate achievements: Earn epic prizes for reading milestones, like pizza parties for the whole class!
  

Who is the Challenge For?

This challenge is for all Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) classrooms in Osceola County. If you have young students who love stories, this is the perfect opportunity to get them involved. This challenge is also the perfect motivation to get your class engaged with reading.

When Will The Challenge Take Place?

The challenge starts on October 6 and ends on the 27th. 

During this time, classrooms will read as much as they can. Every book counts, so make the most of these two weeks for a chance to win a prize for the entire class!

Where will it take place?

The best thing about our reading challenges is they can happen anywhere! Teachers and students can enjoy guided reading sessions in the classroom. Outside of class, kids can keep the challenge going outside of class by reading at home or even on the go! Just remember to track all your reading minutes in Beanstack to stay on top of the challenge.
