Title: Have Journal...Will Travel: Promoting Family Involvement in Literacy
URL: http://readwritethink.org/classroom-resources/lesson-plans/have-journal-will-travel-38.html
Description:

Students take turns taking home a book bag that includes a stuffed toy, a book to read with their families, art supplies, a topic to discuss, and a journal to complete as a family. The students then return the bag the following day and share their entries with the class. After every student has taken the bag home, the journal is bound into a book for the classroom library. The teacher then selects a new topic and book to start a second rotation. The goal is to invite parents to join their children in these literacy activities.
