THE I LOVE TO READ CHALLENGE IS UNDERWAY!
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.
This is the first week that classes have been eliminated from The Challenge. The winners of each match-up in the “A” bracket will advance in the “A” Bracket while the class with fewer minutes read will move to the “B” Bracket. The class that moves to the “B” Bracket will immediately be matched with the corresponding class which has won it’s match-up in the “B” bracket. The class that has the greater number of minutes read will then immediately advance in the “B” Bracket while the other class will be eliminated.
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.
Reading has started in classrooms all across Central Indiana in the I Love to Read Challenge. Good luck to all the teachers and classes that are participating! Whether your child is participating or not, WISH-TV encourages you to grab a favorite book or find a new favorite at your local library. Let’s get reading!
We hope all the students that participate will continue a lifelong love of reading, but whether your child participates 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!
