WE HAVE A NEW I LOVE TO READ CHALLENGE CHAMPION!

Congratulations to Mrs. Ashmore’s Class from Columbus Christian School on being this year’s I Love to Read Challenge Champion! Students in the Challenge read over 1.25 MILLION minutes!

WISH-TV is proud to partner with the NCAA Readers Become Leaders program and Rascal’s Fun Zone to encourage a love of reading in third-graders to help them transition from “learning to read” to “reading to learn.” 

The I Love to Read Challenge encourages safe competition among classrooms with a focus on both personal effort and collaborative achievement. Classrooms advancing to certain levels within the bracket may receive prizes either for the classroom, as a whole, and/or for each individual student from Rascal’s Fun Zone and other program sponsors. The winning classroom will receive a trophy, an exclusive class pizza party celebration with special guests from WISH-TV and program sponsors, and additional prizes from Rascal’s Fun Zone and other program sponsors.

We listened to your input and are making this year’s Challenge a DOUBLE ELIMINATION bracket style contest to bring out the best in your students. 

I Love to Read is open to third-grade classrooms in the following WISH-TV viewing area counties: Bartholomew, Boone, Brown, Clinton, Decatur, Delaware, Hamilton, Hancock, Hendricks, Henry, Howard, Johnson, Madison, Marion, Monroe, Montgomery, Morgan, Owen, Putnam, Rush, Shelby, and Tipton.

Congratulations to all the teachers and classes that participated!  We hope all the students that participated will continue a lifelong love of reading, but whether your child participated in The Challenge or not, WISH-TV encourages you to grab a favorite book or find a new favorite at your local library.  Let’s get reading!
