Global Read Aloud 2018 - Final Thoughts
A Boy Called Bat - Quizlet & Digital Breakout
Quizlet Live might be our new favorite activity. It takes reviewing and bumps it up to a brand new level. It randomly creates teams then within those teams, only one person has the correct answer. So they HAVE to work together. We used Quizlet Live for a review of A Boy Called Bat and had a blast!
Students also tried the Digital Breakout below inspired by the Global Read Aloud Book.

Breakout EDU games teach critical thinking, teamwork, complex problem-solving.
Augmented Reality with Quiver Masks
Coding, Coding, Coding!
Google Santa Tracker

Use Google Santa Tracker to follow Santa Claus on Google Maps as he makes his journey around the world.
A student favorite every December!
