Student Book Recommendation

Hello,

I’m happy to share with you another one of my student’s book recommendations.

The Secret Language of Girls

Cece is a fifth grader and she chose to read The Secret Language of Girls, by Frances O’Roark Dowell.

 

 

 

 

The Secret Language of Girls - #2Cece’s recommendation has all the right ingredients to make any middle grade girl want to pick up this book and enjoy it as much as she did.

Cece is progressing wonderfully in her reading and writing and I’m looking forward to sharing with you another book recommendation she wrote. Stay tuned for more!

Happy Reading,

Kathleen

A Field Trip Idea for Teachers and Librarians

Dear Readers,

I had the opportunity to write a piece for the International Reading Association’s Teacher to Teacher Blog. Here is the link that takes you directly to my teaching tip: http://engage.reading.org/READING/Blogsnbspnbsp/BlogViewer/?BlogKey=8d900d02-ad6e-4a05-984a-9f6aa6bd7ffd

Please pass on this wonderful field trip idea to the parents, teachers, and librarians in your community. I look forward to reading your comments.

Happy Reading,

Kathleen
