Did you know that your students can make a difference in the lives of kids in need... just by reading? Scholastic Book Clubs runs a program called ClassroomsCare. In this program, when
a class reads 100 books by December 21, 2007, Scholastic Book Clubs will donate 100 books to kids in need.
Go to www.scholastic.com/ClassroomsCare to be part of the new ClassroomsCare community online where you can:
- Connect with other caring classrooms.
- Track your class’s progress toward the ClassroomsCare goal.
- Take part in contests and activities.
- Find out where books are being donated.
- And much, much more!
My childcare has participated in this program for several years. Not that you should need an excuse to read to the children in your care, but this is a great incentive and the children have fun keeping a total of the books read to reach the 100 book goal. AND you can help the cause of early literacy for others by Scholastic's donation of books for children in need... Your childcare can make a difference "one book at a time".
