Global Read Aloud, Literacy Stations and a Music Video Too

For the next few weeks, our classes will be participating in the Global Read Aloud. Here is a blurb from their website:

The project was created in 2010 with a simple goal in mind; one book to connect the world. Now with five years under our belt and more than 500,000 connections made in 60 different countries, we realize we are on to something larger than us so we look forward to continuing the global connections.
This year we will be focusing on Amy Krouse Rosenthal's picture books.  The first book we will be exploring is called 'Chopsticks'.
We will be connecting with our Primary Blogging Community as well as Mrs. Denyer's Grade Two class at St. Gregory.  Hopefully, our classes will get to share, collaborate and learn from each other.
We will also begin our Literacy Stations this week.  Each day, students will focus on one area of the language curriculum (ex. guided reading, reading response and writing).  They will also be exploring a tech tool to assist them in sharing what they know:)
On Friday, all the grade two classes gathered to sing and meet new friends.  Take a look at our music video!
