What are we reading Monday?

For the past few weeks we have been working on some digital citizenship skills in the classroom. We call it "What are you reading? Monday" Readers often share books with each other through discussions and with digital tools many adults share what they are reading online using Goodreads or another digital outlet. This is a way for students to begin share a book they have been reading independently online through a Padlet (available only to those who have the link or QR code). 

The students work with a partner to take a picture making sure it includes the title of the book:


They then continue to work together scan a QR code, upload the picture, and add their initials. 


As you can see they are very diligent to support each other and get it just right:


Of course, one of the favorite parts of this activity is looking through the padlet to see what everyone else is reading! It exposes the students to more books than they may have come across browsing the classroom library independently.



Please check out our padlet and see what we are reading: What are you reading? Monday padlet

It continues to be updated each Monday, be sure to check back!
