Learning Ally's 2nd annual
Great Reading Games came to a close earlier this month. Now that we have crunched all of the
numbers, we are excited to announce that
Ann, a 5th grader from Colorado, came in #1 out of 5,000 ear readers!
So, how many pages did she read in just under 7 weeks? 13,000! That's not a type-o! She really read 13,000 pages!
Only recently identified as dyslexic, Ann has been devouring audiobooks. "Before Learning Ally," she says, "I watched my friends read a book in a week while it took me up to 3 months to get through
the same book." Now, Ann reads while she washes dishes, while she is in the car, and any time she has free time. She states "Learning Ally is my friend now."
Ann is home-schooled and also works with a Learning Specialist at Jefferson County's
Summit Charter School in Westminster, Colorado. Ann's teacher, Angela, and mom, Becky, have been wonderful supports to her!
Join us in congratulating Ann, and find out how your school can become a Learning Ally member school
