Let's BookJam!

Hey, Greyhounds!  Do you like to read?  Do you like to play with computers to create cool presentations?  IAre you musically inclined or like to act?  f you answered yes to any these questions, check out the following contest!  I know this school could put together some rockin' projects.  Come see Ms. Dinneen in the library if you're interested....or better yet, respond to this blog post.  It gets lonely just writing for myself - I'd love to hear from you!

How Do YOU BookJam?


Create a Digital Book Report video connecting core standards to 21st-century skills for your chance to win a portion of $20,000 in prizes.

Have your students pick their favorite book or a book from your lesson plan and create a song, performance, or debate. Get creative and win! Use music, props, and costumes! But make sure that it covers the core standards. We’d love to see rap songs about grammar, interactive presentations highlighting setting and symbolism, plays about conflict starring Hester Prynne to Harry Potter, and whatever else you and your students dream up!
