The Global Read Aloud

Picture
Click HERE to visit the Global Read Aloud site!
The Global Read Aloud, or GRA, is an international literacy project where students from all over the world read the same book at the same time. They have the opportunity to interact with other students from around the globe, discussing the book, getting to know each other, and fostering global connections through quality children's literature. The project lasts six weeks, and runs from October 5th, 2020-November 13th, 2020 this year. There are appropriate books for every age, grades K-12. Please click the link below for more information on this worthwhile project. ​
