Happy 4th of July !

Have you seen the inflatable on Leeds Road between Abington and Onandaga?

It is definitely worth a drive by. To give you size perspective, my grandsons Joey (7) and

Cam (5) are standing between the Eagle's toes.

Learn about the State Birds. Cleaver and fun!

Welcome!

The purpose of this blog is to communicate with my students and their parents.

I am a classroom teacher/librarian. It is all about reading and books ! Reading is empowering. When you read you control your destiny !

I hope you are reading a variety of genre this summer. Your favorite food may be pizza BUT to grow and be healthy you must eat a balanced diet. It is the same for reading. You grow as a reader to learn, to be informed and to be entertained.

I have an idea! Be thinking about a reading (genre) pyramid similar to the food pyramid.

Should all genres be equal portions in your reading pyramid?

Should each student have a personal reading pyramid ?

What other factors need to be considered to create a reading pyramid ?

HF! BC!

Picture books that celebrate reading.
