Thanks everyone! #uga7930e

A8 The books I selected for M3 and M4. Also I want to read more books along the lines of AAB (2 or more viewpoints or same topic) #uga7930e

@lkshelt89 @skajder I believe I chose this book (Last Stop on Market Street) for Module 3 or 4 so that's perfect! #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

@lkshelt89 I completely agree! I loved AAB and it impacted me greatly, but would not work for my Kindergarteners! #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

@MariaVanAllen Me too! I want to know how they created the characters/perspectives & the process of jointly crafting this text #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

@PinItToTeachIt I think a skype with students would be a great idea! #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

A7- AAB authors how did you collaborate in order to form this book. Did you each take a character and write from that perspective? #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

A5 @EvanThomasDixon I agree, this metaphor is clear and gets the point across #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

A4- Multiple perspectives & incorporating culture & diversity were the main take aways for me (AAB and all M2 readings) #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

@MariaVanAllen- That was the same for me as well I think the situations in the book were especially relevant #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

@MariaVanAllen- many times, that is why I chose and enjoyed certain books- I could see myself (in some way) in the text #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

@cajordan13 I agree- I am a "people person" and want to be loyal, but it sometimes goes against what I feel is right like Quinn #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

A3 continued- I began to identify more and more with Rashad and began to see similarities and connections between Rashad and Quinn #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

A3 At first, I identified with Quinn (in terms of culture, similar experiences, etc.); However as the book went on that changed. #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

@lkshelt89 Which then made me reevaluate my thoughts and feelings about the recent events that have occurred in the US #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

@lkshelt89 I agree! AAB required me to look at the situation involving Rashad in a completely different way. #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

@cajordan13- So, I would use this book to demonstrate that to parents- to support the use multicultural and multi-perspective lit #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

@cajordan13 I definitely think that AAB demonstrates the value of multiple perspectives. #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

A1 I am excited to share All American Boys with other educators and parents! It will create opportunities for conversations! #uga7930e

[Heather Tucker @htucker828]

Hello! I am here to chat about All American Boys and the other readings for this week! #uga7930E
