Today is a very exciting day in 3rd grade! We're beginning The Global Read Aloud with more than 500,000 other students all over the globe. A fellow participant created this map to show other classes around the world that are also reading "Fish in a Tree"...we added our pin to the map!
Pernille Ripp, the founder of The Global Read Aloud, has welcomed us to this year's project with this message:
AND...Lynda Mullaly Hunt, the author of our read aloud story has also welcomed us and even read the first chapter of the book to us. We're sooo lucky and can't wait to start the journey...
Throughout the next six weeks, we'll be following along to a specific plan for The Global Read Aloud. We don't want to read ahead of our connected classrooms or fall too far behind. So, if you're following along with us at home, be sure to follow our game plan! Also, Mrs. Redford has purchased a few extra copies of FIAT for our RES Library that parents will be able to check out...feel free to join us on our Global Read Aloud journey!!
