(A note from Mrs. Alaniz: Our final book total for the year was 2,347 books. I am so proud of our class! Once we started reading, we couldn't stop. But we didn't read to reach a total. We read to learn and discover more about ourselves. We are lifelong readers now! )
What did you learn this year?
Actually you are wrong on the book total, it is 2,348! I finished Out of my Mind at the library that is filled with books you want to read!I read it with joy!The library is marvelous!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, when you mean once we started reading, we couldn't stop, does that mean our book total will keep getting higher and higher?
Love the idea of keeping a book total - will try it with my 3rd graders this year. I had to laugh at your jalapeño gift! One of my TX students (30 years ago) brought me hot tamales instead of an apple! If you have ever made hot tamales, you know it was a true gift!
ReplyDeleteLove your site - was looking to beef up my bookshelves this year and your book selections have given me lots of summer reading!
