I hope you enjoy watching these short movies from our Halloween party.  I am only just learning how to make movies and upload them to my blog site, so the quality may not be very good this time around.

Get a Jump On Reading

The 2009-2010 list of Sunshine State Readers is out!  These books have been chosen because they are high interest for 4th and 5th graders AND because they are books kids will love!  Last year’s Roxie and the Hooligans was a big hit.  See which one this year will be your favorite.  Start reading them now! Just click the link on this page, read the book reviews and choose your book.  Most of these books can be found at the library or bookstore.   

The Missing

Wow!  I started reading the book and couldn’t stop!  It wasn’t what I expected at all. Now I am going to be looking for the next book in the series.   I also read Clementine about a girl who was a bit different from other girls.  I have a stack of books for summer, including Old Yeller which was one of my favorites when I was in 4th grade.

Summer Reading

Summer is the best time to read!  There is no pressure from anyone and lots of time.  I am going to begin reading the book Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix.  Post any comments you may have about the each chapter on our blogsite. I will be adding posts as I read the book. In addition, I will be updating my website and blog with new links and stuff to do.  I hope everyone has a great summer!!
