Global Read Aloud

Today we are very excited to be starting our Global Read Aloud project. For the next six weeks I will be reading The Year of Billy Miller by Kevin Henkes aloud to the students. Many other schools around the globe are reading the same story. We are hoping to make some global connections with other classes around the world. Be sure to ask your child about this exciting project our whole school is participating in. Stay tuned for more information soon. Thank you to Mrs. Baker for bringing this exciting project to Fuller Meadow. Please leave me a comment about what you thought about the first chapter of The  Year of Billy Miller.
