What is your best idea for Read Across America Day?
Traditionally, our school has guest readers come in and read to every grade level.
This year, we are looking to do much more. I have agreed to be on a committee to
establish a plan for this year and I'm looking for great ideas, particularly ones
for the LMC. I have already compiled a brief list of websites with loads of
information, but I'm really looking more for creative, or original ideas that are
library related.
Here's the website list. Please let me know if you know of other websites that may
be helpful.

Dr. Seuss & Read Across America/ Random House
This is dated 2001, but ideas could be adapted for other years. Includes teacher’s
guides, printable games, certificates, and events.

basis of a letter to parents since ideas are parent/child oriented.
