Idita-READ

Our reading incentive  is based on the famous dogsled race, The Iditarod!  Students will be able to move throughout the Iditarod trail  based on the number of steps they have read in the 100 Book Challenge.  Below is a list of steps that correspond to different checkpoints along the actual Iditarod trail.  When your child reaches each milestone, they get their name on the matching checkpoint throughout the school.  Prizes and incentives are also included!  For more information about the Iditarod, check out the official Iditarod website at http://www.iditarod.com/
