While in the Montréal airport on the way home from Martinique, I found this awesome little children’s book titled Pourquoi J’aime le Québec. This gave me the idea of making my own book called Pourquoi J’aime la Martinique. Then I started thinking… why not have the kids make books about Pourquoi J’aime Seattle or Pourquoi J’aime Alderwood Middle School or basically pourquoi j’aime anything. If you can come up with a list of about 10 reasons why you like something, you can turn it into a book.
I recorded myself reading the book and uploaded it to Youtube.com as an example.
So I made a slide show to tell my students about my summer trip to Martinique. I’m going to turn it into a book and add it to my class library.
Here is my slide show Pourquoi J’aime la Martinique.
