To assure that my students continue to improve their reading skills, they will have access to leveled books for the book club that span the range of readers in my class. Because of damage from Hurricane Florence in our Media Center, many of the books that we would normally have access to are either damaged or are in really bad shape. My students love reading but unfortunately we just don't have enough copies of high interest books for them to read. With this project my students will be able to connect with authors through virtual school visits – using Skype or FaceTime. While in-person authors’ visits can be very expensive, having the correct technology, my students will be able to participate in short free video-chat sessions about the author’s books. Such virtual interactions will change the mindset of my students, parents, and staff. Learning will no longer be confined to the four walls of the classroom. Students will virtually visit with authors and receive authentic feedback about their published books and books that were written by the authors.
