Thank you to Carrie Sieden for sharing her slideshow which saved me a chunk of time.  
I think the action piece in this project could be quite empowering for students.
This is how I am sharing the challenge out to students and families.  We have a subscription to Big Universe so the books are linked for the kids since they are already logged in...in case they want to read a bit more.  Also, if they click on the bitmoji character of me (it's nice you can get a facelift without the pain and expense!), they will hear directions on navigating the slide. Trying to jazz things up a bit to get their attention since I think kids are starting to struggle a bit in the motivation department.
