Overview<\/h4>\n

One of my many passions in life is reading so I wanted to incorporate books into my curriculum; First Chapter Friday was born through this vision. FCF is when I read the first chapter of a new book that has a setting in the region we are currently studying in World Geography class. I\u2019m growing my classroom library and introducing books and reading to my students weekly. Not only am I reading more, but my students are reading more too, while we study the world. When I started this, my goal was to foster their interest in reading and further the goal of inclusivity in my classroom. By using these First Chapter Friday encompasses middle grade fiction and nonfiction, as well as children’s literature, into the seventh grade World Geography course. The year-long course includes a study of six major world regions, along with skill building for research, writing, and project-based learning. Each week has a different read, and the books are preassigned.<\/p>\n
