I will be sending you an email with the new titles, as I couldn't find a simple way to import it into Smore...yet! :)
Reading with Usher
If you were unable to view Scholastic's live broadcast with Usher, you can watch it online. Usher encourages students, parents, and teachers to share their love of reading with others by making a difference in their schools and communities. Afterward, learn how to make a difference all year long through a series of calls to action from Usher. The first action is to vote for one of three leading nonprofit organizations that are providing books to the children in the United States and around the world who need them the most. The Scholastic Possible Fund will then donate 100,000 books, with each organization receiving a portion of the donation to distribute to kids in need. Voting ends Dec. 5th
I enjoyed watching Usher interact with students and really enjoyed the program and the message of "Possible".
