We got "dotty" postcards from our buddy class in Georgia


Although we have been connecting with our buddy class in Georgia via Padlet and Kidblog, last week we connected the old-fashioned way. The students received postcards in the mail from their Georgia Global Read Aloud buddies.  They were decorated in dots in honor of International Dot Day and the book The Dot.  Students were very excited to read the postcards and learn more about their buddies!



This week in our Kidblog conversations, many students talked about the fairy tale told by Abilene's grandmother, Pelligrina.  It did not have a happy ending.   Students have posted thoughtful ideas about why the author might have added such a tale to our read-aloud book, the Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane.
