Looking forward to reading The Bridge Home during #GRA19 starting September 30! #GRABridge @padmatv Anyone want to connect our classrooms?
Teachers, did you know that the Global Postcard Exchange is a fun way for you & your students to make global connections & learn about people & places? #GPE19_20 is open to all classrooms & all ages. More info here: bit.ly/2JPoXLw #GRA19
Wondering what to do for #GRA19 #GRAYuyi? Download my FREE lessons for the Yuyi Morales picture book study here: teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Global… @yuyimorales @bhopteacher
#GRA19 #TheBridgeHome drop a pin if you are participating and reading The Bridge Home. So far 79 International Participants @pernilleripp. google.com/maps/d/u/0/edi…
Finished @padmatv's THE BRIDGE HOME. Starting with the title, she had me on my toes: the home on the bridge? the bridge that brings me home? the bridge that carries me to a new home? And the story of two sisters who leave an abusive house is a universal story: in search of home.
Just added links to articles that may help teachers/librarians using #TheBridgeHome or participating in #GRA19 or #ProjectLITComm who are interested in getting background information on India. padmavenkatraman.com/teacher-resour…
Discussion Guide, Podcast Interviews, Pronunciation Guide and other Resources for #TheBridgeHome (#GRABridge #GRA19 #ProjectLITComm) at padmavenkatraman.com/resources and padlet.com/venkatraman_pa… and more to come (if you've created a resource you'd like to share, please let me know).
Impressions of the city that inspired THE BRIDGE HOME - resource video with photographs that provide background on chapters 1-7 for #GRA19 #GRABridge Week 1 (and #ProjectLITbookclub)
Social Studies Unit Cultures Padlet resource (created by an elementary teacher called Dawn Castner): padlet.com/cbcastner/iu21…
Updated my padlet and youtube with this resource video for week 2 of #GRA19 #GRABridge. Soon will add a link to this on my website (padmavenkatraman.com/resources) as well.
Just posted links to a few relevant articles that provide background on the caste system, Hinduism, etc. that may be of use to educators using THE BRIDGE HOME for #ProjectLIT #ProjectLITCommunity #ProjectLITbookclub and #GRA19 #GRABridge : padmavenkatraman.com/teacher-resour…
Looking forward to joining my #GRA19 sisters and to speaking with @coachhays64 - thanks so much for arranging this, Mike - THURS, 19 September, 9:00 p.m. EST
