Read-alouds and Presentations Week to Week by Grade Level

4/13/2020

 

​MBUSD schools are dismissed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Distance learning is in place until further notice.

To my dear Grand View parents: During this time we are apart, please enjoy these stories with your children. They are what I would have presented, with modifications for the new normal of distance learning. There will be a fresh posting each Monday.
Mrs. Snively Reads to You Click here to view a few videos of me reading out loud. Publishers have waived copyright restrictions during this time of social distancing.

To my library colleagues around the country: you are welcome to borrow any ideas that may work for your own students. ​​​
