The idea behind the book is for your child to answer a question a day in just a few short lines. It's billed as a family keepsake to keep treasured for a lifetime. What a wonderful idea!
Then my fourth grade educated mind...wait...can I try that again.
Then my educator of fourth graders mind...there we go...went into high gear. Can I use this in my classroom? And the resounding answer inside my mind was YES!
And then my edtechy mind took over and I began envisioning my fourth graders tweeting an answer a day to the question in 140 characters or less. While tweeting may not be the way to go, maybe blogging, I still love this idea. Asking a question a day; some questions dealing with content and CCGPS, some dealing with current events, and some just dealing with life.
How will my students respond? How will I respond? Since this is a new idea I'm not sure if I will start it this year. I think I'll make some questions up with a cutesy font and whimsical pictures and make a million dollars on Teachers Pay Teachers!
Any ideas on how you could use this idea in your classroom. I'd love to for you to share so I can steal it!! (It's called collaboration, right?)
Until next time.
