Million Words Read Challenge







The Million Words Read Challenge

Each episode of the Read to Lead games gives students the chance to read 5,000 words.

The more episodes your students play, the more words are contributed to the one million word goal.


CHALLENGE ACCEPTED

Why Should We Read a Million Words?

We want to help you motivate your students to read.

By participating in our challenge, your students will become stronger readers and leaders.

And, every millionaire class will receive a celebration and prizes!

How Will We Know We Won?

We’ve built special badges to help you know how many words your students have read. We have three tiers for badging. Each time you hit a new level, you’ll earn another badge. You’ll find these badges in the “Class Stats” section tab.

Individual Badges

These are your student`s individual benchmarks. As they progress through the game, we award different badges as they reach new levels of word count.

Classroom Badges

These are your classroom stats. Your students work together to reach a collective goal of one million words.

National Badges

Don’t stop at one million words! By playing more of our games (we have three!), you have a chance to be one of the top classrooms in the country.
