Today is cold. C.O.L.D. Cold outside, and cold in our school. So, after we did an abbreviated version of our intro to Macbeth, I decided to introduce the outside reading project a few days early. (After all, we may have a snow day tomorrow and they might need some reading material...) ;) I started with a giant stack of my favorite books, and did a little talk about each one. I know that when I talk about my favorite books, I often sound like a dork. I have accepted that. I love my books like I love my friends, and I LOVE to see kids get excited about them too. After I finished, I asked which ones wanted book I had discussed, and many of them did, which made me very happy. We then went down to the library for the others to find a book and for everyone to snuggle into the couches and read for the rest of the period. It was just a day for that... a day to snuggle up with a good book!
