World Read Aloud Day is March 7, 2012. This day is sponsored by
Litworld which is a nonprofit organization working to eliminate illiteracy in our world. You can determine how you want to participate in this day. My class is going to participate, but I am going to try to talk my whole 3rd grade team to participate. I am hoping to have a guest reader from our community come in, and possibly to have a guest reader through the Internet as well. I am still brainstorming ideas of what to do that afternoon. We will be doing Day 2 of our state testing on that morning, so I am thinking that we will dedicate the whole afternoon to read aloud! Sounds like fun to me!
