As the official start of the project approaches, I am getting incredibly excited. Welcome each and everyone to this project!
I thought it would be fitting if anyone wanted to submit a guest blog or have their class do one to just let me know. That way this will become our blog and not just mine. So if before, during, or after the project you want to share your thoughts, experiences, please let me know via email, comment, or twitter and I will put up your post.
Thank you once again for joining me on this adventure. We plan on doing our first read aloud part next Monday and students will be drawing their own versions of a snake swallowing an elephant to be scanned into the wiki page. We will also be predicting and sharing those predictions. Remember no contribution is too little or too big so share whatever you feel like.
Good luck and welcome onboard!
We are very excited to begin this project next week. Our class will be reading the story on our SMARTBoard using the Readability function to eliminate the advertisements from the website:

I am looking to find a class to set up a skype session to make some predictions before beginning the story. If you are interested, please contact me to set up a time. kim_gill@wrdsb.on.ca
My sixth grade class is participating, and I am very excited! Can't wait to hear how it's going for everyone–that's the point–to connect!
