Join us in an interactive exchange of ideas, opinions, and information. Together we will create a website where our students can share their love and interests in reading.

Our long term, telecollaborative project is aimed at encouraging students to read, write, and discuss what they have read. Students will be asked to contribute personal book reviews, as well as participate in literature discussions about chosen books. As the project unfolds, the students will have access to a collaborative list of book reviews from which to identify other books of interest, as well as other students with similar interest.

Each participating student will be asked to submit at least one book review to the project website. Each participating classroom must contribute to at least one of the book discussions and one critical analysis of a literary work during the current length of the project.

By participating in this project, students will learn to write a book review, critically analyze a literary work, discuss elements of a story, and extend their love for reading
