Jumpstart for the Record
Posted by jplatt on October 1, 2008
As an executive board member of ASCD, Hofstra’s Student Chapter, I helped organize and run tomorrow’s Jumpstart event, reading Don Freeman’s Corduroy to high-needs schools in Long Island and Queens. Being a part of this organization is such a great and rewarding experience to get involved in the education community.
I urge you to donate books and read them tomorrow to help break a record, for the most children reading the same book in one day (even the NY Times posted a brief segment on this event).
