Middle schoolers enjoy a good read …or 10!
NEA recently tapped MSTA's Radical Readers Contest as the top middle school Read Across America program. The contests boosts reading and literacy for the ‘tween set in a four-month contest, and required students to read, then write about 10 books and submit their work for the statewide drawing.
MSTA members can also see the students in the Association's upcoming literacy video, What's So Radical About Reading?
Each of the three winners received:
-
A laptop computer (compliments of Staples)

A giant pizza party!
