Mrs. Carlson and Ms. Wills Multicultural Book Club


My class will be book buddies with Mrs. Carlson's class, and we will be incorporating a read aloud of a multicultural book each month.  The students will also get to enjoy some sort of edible treat from the book to experience part of the culture featured in the book .  In our first session, we read Too Many Tamales.  Mrs. Carlson said, "The kids were very excited about the book and enjoyed making illustrations of their favorite part."  Ms. Wills said, "One of my class parents made the tamales.  This was a great way to make a family connection."
