We are starting a very exciting reading program this week called Global Read Aloud. We will be reading Fish in a Tree by Lynda Mullaly Hunt together. While we read, we will be completing many activities that meet the Minnesota state standards for reading. The best part of our program is that we will be connecting with a class of 5th graders in Seattle, Washington and a class of 5th graders in New Zealand as we read.
This first week we will be introducting ourselves to each other using a special website called Write About. Then we will be talking about the book with these students as we all read together. It is going to be exciting to learn about students from all over the world!
