The white space on the right side is large enough to affix a label with the childʻs student ID number and password.

Deep under the ocean, into outer space, an ancient civilization or a wonderful world of wizards... wherever you want to go, reading can take you there! This school year we will embark upon journeys to exotic locations around the world with #808Reads.

To join the trip, students, teachers, and families can read and log minutes on 808Reads. The first badge is earned after only 5 minutes, then readers earn a badge for every 30 minutes of reading logged up to 5 hours. After logging 300 minutes, readers will earn a new badge every 60 minutes.

#808Reads is a statewide reading initiative with a mission of spreading reading throughout our culture, not just at school. Students can log their reading minutes and earn rewards and recognition, while developing and learning their reading habits. Teachers can easily see what and how much students have been reading at home, to help keep them motivated and provide insights about their habits. The system is based on milestone badging for reading and some literacy activities including listening, speaking, viewing, researching, and writing. 

All you need to do is choose something to read and track your reading in Beanstack. You will automatically start earning rewards.
