Challenge 15: BEST LEARNING STORY

For the past semester of graduate school, I have been learning to "flatten classrooms and engage minds". Challenge 15 asks me to share my best global collaborate story to all other teachers out there. My story starts with a minimum of three students per homeroom that set up Edmodo accounts in the library. These students work with other students in France under the same group code. Students read and review the same book and share their thoughts. It is like an online book report with the help of other students in another country! The kids are overwhelmed with excitement when it is time to go to the library to talk with their friends in Italy. It is motivated and most of all ENGAGING!!
