5th - 9th Grade
The Bridge Home by Padma Venkatraman is one of the novels selected for this year's Global Read Aloud. This will be my fifth year participating in the Global Read Aloud, and the resources I design for my classroom will be shared here in my store for free for the duration of the read-aloud.
This resource is designed to introduce students to the novel, the author and some background information on India's Ragpickers.
What's included:
- A suggested lesson plan
- A journal entry that asks students to study the cover and make predictions based on some leading questions. It also includes a direct link to the book trailer.
- A 7 Word Challenge puzzle on the author, Padma Venkatraman. The puzzle requires students to complete a bit of research using on-line sources (the links are provided). This activity requires students to read carefully to decipher clues and come up with a word that fits the description based on the letter tiles provided.
- An active listening worksheet that students complete after watching “India’s Ragpickers - the Harsh Reality.” The worksheet also includes opportunities for student response to certain aspects of the video.
- Answer keys for all resources
I will be uploading resources that accompany the read-aloud weekly. Follow my store to receive updates when these new resources are uploaded.
