[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

Truly. The pleasure was all mine! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

.@BremaMms @maske6th Your students have some really great suggestions! I have read many of these and would agree with their recommendations! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

@MrsBradyEnglish @Libraryhub_EMS Thank you for joining us! We loved having you!

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

Thank you so much to the classes that were able to participate today. It is always fun to get to see what your students are reading. Let's do it again next year! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

As a final thought for today. I would love for you to share a "gift worthy" book that you have read this year. This will help others reading these tweets know what are good books to buy for kids and you can all make/take recommendations to/from each other! #gsrat21

@BremaMms Who knew fencing could be so interesting? I'm a new fan. #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

I JUST finished this book on Wednesday. I LOVED IT! Great choice! #gsrat21

@GlobalReadAThon Natalia "Dante's pet would definitely be a dog, because he's very athletic and I feel like he'd really like a dog!" #BlackBrotherBlackBrother #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

Quick..Now name those pets….not the name YOU would choose...the name the character would choose! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

@BremaMms YIKES! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

I would be remiss if I didn't include at least one pet challenge before the end of the day! Match your characters to what pets you think they need. Are they dog people, cat people, fish people, lizard people? Tell me! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

The final sports/reading challenge: If you play a sport, would you like to take a character from your book and place him/her on your team? If so, which character, which sport, why would you add him/her to your team? #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

@Maske6th Wait...why the puke emoji if it is a good one? I am confused. :) #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

How are you feeling about your current read? Please give me 5 emojis if you LOVE your book. 1 emoji if it is a "skip it" book. And anything in between of course! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

@Maske6th Agree! Love that book! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

Regarding the earlier Sports Challenge. If you decided to play a sport with the characters in your book, who would you choose to be the captain of your team? #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

Well, @maske6th It seems you have quite a split. Either 5 emojis or 1. And if it is 1 emoji, maybe you should consider abandoning it for a higher emoji choice! Just a thought. Read what you like is my motto! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

This is SUCH a good book. I would give it 5 emojis too! #gsrat21

@GlobalReadAThon Emily: 🪨👯⚫️🏫🏀 Maybe He Just Likes You by Barbara Dee #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

How did you know that I LOVE the Rock? He is every man. LOL! Great choice kids! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

@Maske6th I'm thinking yes...she should tell him! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

Sensory Overload Challenge #2 - Did you hear that? What kinds of noises do you hear on your page right now? But please don't let it get too loud if you are reading in the library. I don't want the librarian to be angry with you. #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

@Maske6th Odd. But I'll take it! #gsrat21

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

Sensory Overload Challenge #4 - (This will be the last challenge in the series.) We’ve done smell, touch, & sound. The only thing left is sight. Tell me something interesting you see on your page right now! #gsrat21 No, I didn’t forget about taste. We covered that this AM.

[Global Readers @GlobalReadAThon]

I LOVE Amari! She is a strong and independent woman not to be messed with! #gsrat21 #girlswithgrit

[Elizabeth Maske @Maske6th]

@GlobalReadAThon Caitlynn: I can see the giant snake serpent under water trying to kill Amari. #Amariandthenightbrothers #gsrat21
