The Hawaii Reads challenge encourages students to continue to improve their reading comprehension skills. The more reading a student does, the more opportunity he or she has to build important literacy skills while discovering the joys of independent reading. The #808Reads utilizes Beanstack, a reading tracking app, to encourage students and provide teachers more data on students’ free-choice reading. The statewide reading goal is 8 million minutes.
