SUMMARY:Rose Hill Magnolia Read Aloud
DESCRIPTION:I read to a class of 6th graders at Rose Hill magnolia. I read the book ” Let It Shine ” by Ashley Bryan. I was able to put the book on the smart board so it would be bigger and better as I read it out to the students. I had an amazing time and definitely wouldn’t mind going back. The students were well respectful and engaged.
