Introduction


 * = Introduction =

====You have recently listened to your classroom teacher read aloud //The Colossus Rises// Book One of the Seven Wonders series by Peter Lerangis. As you have been listening to the book, you have followed Jack on his journey to each of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. While reading you have been "stopping and jotting" down your thoughts. Additionally, you have been researching and learning about the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World in social studies. You have completed a "boxes and bullets" bookmark for each of the ancient wonders. While researching in social studies and listening to the read aloud you have made many text to text connections.==== ====During your last meeting with your book buddy, you started talking about the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Your book buddy was confused and had no idea what you were talking about. You decided that you would like to teach them all about the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. After thinking about it for a while you came to the conclusion that first graders love to read books, so you decided to put together, print and bind a PowerPoint into an easy reader book that your first grade book buddy would understand and enjoy. In your PowerPoint you combine what you have learned in social studies as well as on Jack's journey to each of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.==== || ||
