#CubRAD

Today our school hosted it's first ever whole school read aloud day. We read A Bad Case of Stripes by David Shannon.

After each read aloud, we went live with Camilla Cream to read tweets from the broadcast. I am excited to report that every child in our school heard the story of Camilla Cream today.

At the end of the school day we tried yet another first... we broadcast live on location from Mrs. Sanders classroom. They were the winners of the MOST TWEETS award. The students assisted Camilla in reading the top tweets from the day.


Hearing the kids comment on the stripes was quite funny. The best part of the day by far was when Camilla came face to face with a class of kindergartners that had LOTS of questions! Today at dismissal I heard kids from different grade levels discussing the story and the events that took place through the story. Isn't this exactly what we want as a school? Kids excited about learning and choosing to talk about their connections and experiences even after the 2:45 bell? I consider that a success!


I was so proud to see our school come together to integrate literacy and technology. There were numerous connections and higher level discussions that sparked from the story. Thank you to the awesome teachers at Christie for participating!



This will definitely NOT be the last #CubRAD!
