Students in Mrs. Leber’s 8th grade Language Arts classes have been participating in the Global Read Aloud (https://theglobalreadaloud.com). They have been reading the dystopian novel The Marrow Thieves by Cherie Dimaline in class, while making connections with students from Marlboro Middle School using FlipGrid, Padlet, and other communication tools. Students have been making connections about characters, themes, and big questions that have arisen in the novel in real-time.
