Little Brother Project

I have started to develop a project based on Cory Doctorow's book Little Brother. It would involve reading and discussing the book, researching a technology tool that would be useful to the student, and an eventual final project of developing a media presentation that shows themselves saving the world using their technology tool (can be art, music, writing, etc.). If you are interested, please let me know. I can share out the webspiration document I've been working on in it's development.

I would love to see what you are working on. I teach 6th grade at a middle school and I loved this book and did a book talk on it with my students. Many have read it and loved it as well. I would gladly take whatever you would be willing to share and help out in any way. My email is amaurer@bettendorf.k12.ia.us
