ESL Reading Buddies Activity

Reading crosses all age boundaries. The ESL Year 7, 8, 9 class this term have been using an online storybook creation website, called Storybird, to create a picture books to share with students from the Junior Learning Community. JLC students were invited to the ESL classroom and paired up to start with a get- to-know-each other activity and read the online picture stories together. It was a wonderful experience for the students, who reflected on the sharing session as being exciting, fresh, collaborative and challenging.
