Reading Around the World with our 7th Graders

Students in our 7th grade Language Arts classes just completed their Read Around the World unit. This unit gives them an opportunity to read a variety of books set in different countries and understand how children from different cultures are similar and different from them. Students were able to read at their own pace and choose from a variety of titles. Some students were even able to read all of the available titles and over 1,000 pages! Amazing job, 7th grade! View the video below to see the impact that this unit had on our students and to view the variety of titles from which our students were able to choose.
