Summer Roadtrip Reading Contest – Announcing the Winners!

Drum roll please. 

This year’s winners for the 2010 Bookshare Summer Road Trip contest are… each of the 340 students who registered and participated!  The contest was a “virtual road trip” where students downloaded and read books about our U.S. 50 states.  After reading, they submitted a short review, including one “cool” thing they learned about that state. 

Collectively, these students downloaded, read, and submitted reviews for over 840 books… way to go!  Everyone who participated should feel a great sense of accomplishment.  

Bookshare also wants to acknowledge our most active Road Trippers.  These are the top downloaders and readers for three grade levels, who criss-crossed the country at a dizzying pace.  We especially want to recognize our top readers; Nichole Maples who read over 140 books, Correy Crawford who read over 110 books, and Danielle Montour who read over 70 books.  Amazing!
