"One Book to Connect the World." That's the motto of the Global Read Aloud which kicks-off this week. The project, started by Wisconsin teacher Pernille Ripp, aims as connecting students around great literature.
Classrooms sign up to read one of five different books or author studies. This year's choices are:
Author Study
Book Choices
My class participated last year for the first time and read Out of My Mind by Sharon Draper. We blogged our thoughts on Kidblog (our blog link) and connected with several 5th grade classes at Mars Centennial School in Pennsylvania to write and Skype. It was fabulous!
