As a fourth grade, students selected their last book club books. Every book option had been made into a movie. We have done this project for several years and I was so excited to be able to add Out of my Mind to the list this year. Once students read the book, they came (from different 4th grade classrooms) to my room to watch the movie. We had a great discussion about how much better the book was than the movie. We saw a lot more differences than similarities. We also talked about how the characters looked a lot different in our heads when reading.\r\n\r\nWith my own class, I read the book aloud (as I do each year) and had several discussions. The students absolutely loved the book and learned a lot. We are planning to watch the movie this week. It is also my hope to have students from our essential skills class come in and have a discussion about the medi-talker.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your support. I look forward to continuing to use one of my favorite books with future students.","fullyFundedDate":1739564139057,"projectUrl":"project/out-of-my-mind-book-vs-movie/9075350/","projectTitle":"Out of My Mind - Book vs Movie","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Golladay","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4511623_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1519003038606","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4511623"},{"teacherId":9799492,"projectId":9021875,"letterContent":"On behalf of West Lafayette Intermediate School, I would like to extend our deepest gratitude for your generous donation of the gift of yoga!
