Global Read Aloud 2018

For Literacy in Kindergarten, we joined the Global Read Aloud. This annual project was created in 2010 with one simple goal in mind; one book to connect the world. This year, the books were chosen to read aloud during a set 6-week period where we try to make as many global connections as possible. We shared our thoughts about the books we read with children in other classrooms around the world. This year we read books by multiple authors such as Monique Gray Smith and Julie Fleet, both mixed-heritage women of Cree ancestry. Their books started conversations, inspired kindness, and helped us create connections. In our cooking session with Ms. Clynese, we made and sampled Cree Bannock bread.
