Wyoming, ON – Chatham-Kent and Lambton County elementary and secondary school classes and homeschool groups are invited to participate in the Clash of the Classrooms Reading Challenge, hosted by Lambton County Library, in partnership with Chatham-Kent Public Library (CKPL). Through this program CKPL and Lambton County Library aim to strengthen students’ love of reading.
Online registration for Clash of the Classrooms opens Monday, January 9. Educators can register their classes and groups for the challenge through Beanstack, a web-based reading tracking service that enables individuals and groups to easily track their reading progress.
From February 6 to March 10, educators can use Beanstack to report their classes’ reading progress. Classes will earn badges for reaching reading milestones and completing activities. Any time students spend reading in and outside of class during the challenge can be added to class reading totals.
Two elementary classes and one high school class from each municipality will win a pizza party for the most minutes read! As well, one elementary school, one high school and one homeschool group from each municipality will win a cash prize for most collective minutes read. Sign-up today and get reading!
