Welcome Back


I hope you all read some great books over the summer. Some students are already in the 100 point club! (Don't forget you get rewards each quarter for being a member in the 100 point club.)
Wow- that is summer reading at it's finest!

My book club choice was Cutting for Stone. I learned a great deal about other cultures and communication – or lack thereof... I am excited to talk about it at my book club Tuesday night.

I also read the first Fablehaven book by Bruce Mull. I agree with the Elder Grove readers that is a very entertaining series. Reminded me a bit of Harry Potter, but much easier to read. I am looking forward to the sequel. I have started Book One of the Gideon Trilogy, The time travelers by Linda Buckley-Archer . It reminds me even more of Harry Potter, but so far without the magic element – just science fiction. It is a 6.3 level worth 17 points!

I am happy to say that a student, Jessica M. requested that I add a new post. I am glad that at least one person is reading them :) And it was on my To-do list I just hadn't given it high enough priority. The challenge to myself is to update it at least once a week. Nudge me if I get behind.
