Global Read AloudThe Global Read Aloud was created by Pernille Ripp to connect students around the world in reading.
One book to connect the world! Books are selected to be read out loud to students during a six week period starting in October. These books are read around the world and classes attempt to make global connections to discuss, share, etc. about the book. |
At the College of Ed |
METRC hosted read alouds of the picture books and one of the YA/Middle Grades books in 2018. Books were read aloud in METRC following the schedule for the Global Read Aloud. Join us for these excellent readings! Books can be checked out in METRC or from our eBook systems.
