In our world it's so easy to connect with people (and classes in our case), which makes projects much more fun. The map above shows all the classes participating in the Global Read Aloud. Just this week we tweeted the author of The 14th Goldfish, Jennifer Holm, and got not one, but two return tweets! What would you ask the author of a book you are enthralled in? Today we Skyped with Mr. Balcom's 5th grade class in Nebraska to discuss the book. We asked and answered questions about the book and ended with questions about each class' location. Mr. Balcom was generous enough to share the pictures they took during our call. Check out the photo album below of our Skype call. 5A students, what are your thoughts on the Skype call? We are only 2 weeks into the #GRA14 with #GRAGoldfish and we can't get enough. It is hard to only read the allotted amount each week because we are dying to know what happens next!
