Engage your students in literacy and ICT with The Pyjama Foundation Reading Frenzy, an online read-a-thon where students blog about their favourite books.

Participating students review 10 books of their choice on their own blog and seek sponsorship from friends and family.

This program incorporates web 2.0 technology and is very easy to run, with minimal administration and no registration fees 

 

Benefits for students are:

  • Great opportunity to build their writing skills by doing book reviews

  • They create their own web page to blog and share their views with their friends and family

  • They are actively involved in helping others in their community

  • Prizes up for grabs including movie tickets and games

Benefits for schools are:

  • Highlighting the importance of literacy

  • Demonstrating how you support your community

  • Easy to manage and promote – we’ve got everything ready for you

“I would just like to say how much Isobel enjoyed doing the Reading Frenzy and her teacher commented how massively her reading has improved since she has done it!!” said Victoria, whose daughter participated in 2010.

“Needless to say she was also over the moon that she was one of the few selected to win a prize – it really has boosted her confidence, so thank you. We hope all the money raised will allow some other children who are less lucky to also enjoy and improve their reading.”
