*****For "I Love to Read Month", I shared my favorite children's book, Love You Forever. I would like the students to choose their favorite childhood book, bring it to class, and share it with us. We have also started a Reading Board Game which will continue to the end of the year.

******We discussed the MS Read-a-thon today, and I handed out pledge sheets. I have encouraged the students to take part in this worthy fundraiser. We will continue with it until early March.
