The Philadelphia Reading Olympics is a new and innovative way to get children interested in becoming voracious readers. During these olympics, students collaborate with their teammates to read fifteen books that have been selected by a committee of reading specialists, librarians, and classroom teachers. 

The most important thing is that the Reading Olympics is fun!

Our goals are:

• to foster a love of reading
• to teach cooperation and teamwork.

Celebrate your student's efforts, encourage them, model your love of reading, and demonstrate the power of teamwork.
