Karl Fisch at Arapahoe High School shared an interesting project going on at his campus–teachers covering the novel 1984 are asking parents to voluntarily read and blog along with the students.

One fascinating aspect of it is that the teachers asked the students to blog about some “blogging expectations” for their parents.   It’ll be interesting seeing how the parent participation piece goes.   I’m thinking it will be a great way for parents to empathize with their students about the amount of work they are doing in school, and also feel more involved with the assignment.  

Thoughts or ideas on doing an assignment where parents are asked to participate?
