International Book Sharing Project & KEEP

January 19th, 2010

Once again, our 8th grade KEEP students are taking part in the International Book Sharing Project.  This year we are paired with the students in Ms Larisa Raiter’s class of Ort  Oren in Afula, Israel.  We will read the Island on Bird Street by Uri Orlev and converse with each other in our forum.  We are very excited to begin this project.

Be sure to go to KEEP Flickr site to see  the KEEP students who will travel to Europe in March 2010 who are participating in this project.  We can’t wait to see pictures of our Israeli friends!
