Skype with Jennifer Nielsen

On Monday, January 25, the Boone Middle School seventh graders listened to the final chapter of the book, A NIGHT DIVIDED.  This would seem to be an ordinary reading class activity, however this was far from ordinary.  It was extraordinary.  The author, Jennifer Nielsen,  actually read the final chapter of the book to the seventh graders via Skype while sitting in her office in Utah. After reading, the students had a chance to ask Jennifer questions about her book and her writing process.  What a great way to show students how we can connect to others all over the country.
