Read For The Record

Jumpstart's Read for the Record


What are you doing on October 6? How does breaking a world reading record while raising awareness about America’s achievement gap sound?
Join us as we participate in Jumpstart’s Read for the Record® presented in partnership with Pearson Foundation. Its a national campaign that mobilizes adults and children to close the early education achievement gap by setting a reading world record.
This annual campaign allows Americans to demand that all children receive the quality early education they deserve. On October 6, 2011, more than 2 million voices will call for an end to America’s early education achievement gap by readingLlama Llama Red Pajama by Anna Dewdney – setting a world record in the process!
Get involved at www.readfortherecord.org to help Jumpstart close the early education achievement gap:
1. Pledge to Read: Submit your official pledge and help us reach more than 2.1 MILLION children.
2. Spread the Word: Use our simple tools to educate your friends and family about America’s early education achievement gap and invite them to read.

I have participated in Jumpstart's Read for the Record the past couple years with my PreK class. This year I will be reading with the little girl. From 18 kids to 1, but still participating. Hope you all can join in, too.
