• I wanted to remind everyone about Beanstack, our school-wide reading program that encourages students to log their reading minutes and earn fun prizes.

  Here’s how it works:

  • Students can log their reading minutes independently.
  • Teachers can log minutes for the whole class during read-alouds.
  • You can also view your students’ reading logs or log your own minutes!

  To log in:

  • Username: Your school email address
  • Password: beanstackreads (same for everyone)
