Where are you?

Where are my students at? I think I will do 2 interviews a week when I return since I haven't been able to interview anyone lately. I will interview everyone, so if you want an interview via email, email me now -- otherwise we will do a face to face interview :). Your choice!

Reading

When you read, do you read faster as the pages turn?

I think I do. Make sure you read for at least 15 minutes before putting a book down until tomorrow. If you read only for 5 minutes, you will barely be able to become interested in the plot. Give it a chance! Think about how much TV you watch to "get" the story and really get into a show. Give a book at least half that.

Breaks

What are you guys up to for your holiday? The two week break is coming soon. I hope you have started looking at The Giver and reading some.

My first son starts pre-school tomorrow! I am very excited for him. We had a special dinner for his birthday and for the start of school. Do you have any traditions before the school year begins?
