We have just recently started the Global Read Aloud with over 120,000 other students! We were very excited for it to begin. Our teacher only showed us the cover of the book and the title, Out of My Mind, and then asked us to make predictions about what the book was about. Then we started reading. It is a very good book! Our predictions were off, but we were able to go back and change them based on what we learned.
We are connecting with other teachers and classes on edmodo and on our blogs. Everyone is busy posting and commenting! It is a lot of work, but so much fun. We have already Skyped with Ms.Bauer's class in South Carolina. They are also reading the book. We can tell our teacher has more things planned, and we can't wait to see what will happen next, both in the book, in class, across the country, and around the world!
