Chapter Book Read Aloud - Passing time during a pandemic

There has been so much happening so rapidly with this corona virus pandemic that has swept our nation. I miss seeing all of your faces. I mean I know we were supposed to be on Spring Break anyways, but NOT getting to see your faces for a month, makes it seem TOO LONG!

I am going to send home some ideas of things you can do with all your free time, but thought it might be fun to all read a book together too. If you do not have a copy of Wish, that's OK. Just listen along and think about or respond to the questions that are with each video. 

I have also created an account on Vocabulary.com and assigned the four exercises that go with the book "Wish". They are presented in games and activities, so this should make it a bit more fun to become familiar with some of the words in the book. 

You may notice that the videos are UNLISTED, this was a requirement set by the publisher to meet the copyright laws. That is why I will post them here. This website is not highly used, and I can update it as I record more videos. That way you and your parents do not need to get massive emails from me with the links, you can come and get them when you are ready. I have recorded Chapters 1 - 3 so far. If you look in the title line, you will see that I have sourced the books as well. WE have talked about giving people created for their work, so that is what i did. (: 

Just click on the links below to follow along, or just listen to this fun book about a young girl and her struggles. Don't forget to be a part of the conversation in the Discussion portion under the video...
