Global Read Aloud 2015


We are very excited to once again be participating in the Global Read Aloud.  This is a wonderful project that allows students from all over the world to read the same book at the same time and interact with it in different ways.  We are loving Fish in a Tree by Lynda Mullaly Hunt.  It is the story of Ally, a girl who can't read.  It is also a great story about friendship and how we treat each other.  We have enjoyed reading comments from other students across the globe on Twitter and an online padlet.  We have also posted some of our thoughts on Twitter about the book so far.  It is a great read aloud book and it has been easy to make connections to the different reading strategies and skills we have been working on in class.  Be sure to ask your child for updates about the story as we go!
