Reading for 4/21

Hope you had a good week and found the time useful to get your projects in order!

The reading for this week is just to play around on this site -- watch videos and check out the work that kids are doing. As you look over the Listen Up! site for class this week, think about the title of this week. Do you think of this kind of video work as "talking back?"

Looking forward to seeing you all on Tuesday!
