Let's Be Great Readers Together!

Let’s read, build our reading habits, earn points, and celebrate together! 
This year, ALL of Learning Ally’s schools and students will be participating in the Great Reading Games.
 
2022 Great Reading Game Dates: January 10- February 28

Pages fly by as stamina goes sky-high

Learning Ally's Great Reading Games is a 7-week event proven to help educators engage students and increase reading stamina. Struggling readers return to class each day excited to see how many pages they read and if their school has moved up on one of the 12 school leaderboards. Dyslexic and struggling readers have the motivation they need and the recognition they deserve for their reading achievements!
