Happy Summer!

I hope all of you are having a fantastic summer. I know I certainly am. I love coming home from my early morning working out, drinking my latte, and reading the paper in silence...my kids are still sleeping. I have had a lot more time to read. Besides reading the paper from front to back each morning, I am catching up on my magazine pile, reading lots of blogs to get great ideas for next year's lessons, and of course enjoying some great books. I always tell you guys that I only read one chapter book at a time so you certainly don't need to check out 5 chapter books at one time. However, I may need to think about that again...I am currently reading a "kids" book called The Search For Delicious and an "adult" book called Look Again. I am finding that this is working for me.
I have enjoyed seeing many of you all over town...at the grocery store, the *public library*, the pool, summer school, and even cross country running camp. You are all as busy as I am! If you have time, post what you are reading and if you would recommend it to other kids.
Don't forget our library is open on Tuesdays from 10-12 so drop in and join us!
Good Books! Good Times!

On the other hand, I am also going full speed in the library as well.  We are ending the year by wrapping up Genius Hour projects, art bots, creating books on topics we are passionate about, introducing next year's Missouri award books, and getting summer reading off the ground so our LC kiddos keep on reading!  Several of us are also totally reva
