Idita- READ!

Our classroom version of the Iditarod, known as Idita-READ, is under way!  The students are tracking their minutes that they read and moving along the Iditarod trail.  Each minute equals one mile.  Some of our "mushers" are off to a great start!  Musher Alex Lee is in the lead with 175 miles traveled and has arrived and left Swenta.  Musher Emily Pelella is close on his sled runners with 155 miles read.  She is 6 miles past Swenta.  Sadly, some of our mushers have not even left Anchorage.  They have not traevled a single mile!  Very disappointing!  The winner of our Idita-READ will win a $25.00 gift certificate to Linda's Storytime!  Let's Get Reading!
