What is the Extreme Reading Relay? |
The Extreme Reading Relay is a national awareness campaign and fundraising event where invited schools, in partnership with the International Dyslexia Association (IDA), will attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the most people reading a single book in one day. Nearly 2,000 students from schools across the U.S. will participate in this historic celebration of literacy; demonstrating that all struggling readers can learn to read successfully and become lifelong learners. The event will be streamed live via the internet for the world to see. IDA provides each participating school and their students with all the resources and support they need to be successful both in raising awareness and in fundraising. On May 10, 2012, more than 2,000 students with learning disabilities across the United States will join forces to do something extraordinary... They are going to attempt to break the Guiness Book of World Records reading relay record! Are you interested in donating, but aren't affiliated with a participating school?
