Calculate the kilometres and create a scale. Assign a kilometre value per book and a class/classes to a continent. Kinders get the smallest continent or distance; 5/6 the largest. Classes/individuals read books (fiction or non fiction) from the continent, or set in it, and map their part of the journey colouring in the route as they cover the kilometres. Challenge is to read around the world before the end of book week. ---------------------------------------------------- Identify/ graph the origins of the students in your school. Mark on a map.
