It is time to figure out what we are reading when. As always, do not worry about falling behind, I do almost every year, but if you do get ahead, please do not spoil it for others. If you are in an all year school or you have vacation during the 6 weeks, it helps when you post for connections since I know there are many of you out there.
The project kicks off October 1st to November 9th.

Hi, I’m very excited to do this next year. This will be my first time participating. I am planning on doing this with 5th grade students. I want to make sure I understand correctly- so we choose one of the four books to read? Thanks for your help. Sincerely, Jodi Kelley

Yes, you select one of the books. Have you read this post? https://theglobalreadaloud.com/for-participants/frequently-asked-questions/
So I’m guessing A Boy Called Bat is the book for primary this year and there won’t be a picture book author? Is that correct?
By the way, I was in your session at the Chicago Reading Summit yesterday. Thanks for your passion!!!
Nope, the picture books are in a separate post
Thanks for the information.

I teach grade 8 – would this be considered middle school or YA. Some students are 12 turning 13 soon – others are already 13 and will be 14 by the end of the school year. Not sure which category they fall under.
I would read both options and see which one would work best for your students
This is my first year being involved in the GRA and I am so excited! Thank you!!
