I found a stack of simplfied classics at a thrift store and bought them for my classroom library. These books are never, never on the shelf; they're always in someone's desk for silent reading time. I'll never forget the student who was so lost in Robinson Crusoe he didn't hear the rest of the class get up and leave for science! Gotta love a kid like that. (He attends an environmental science charter school now, too!)Daisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11647906900944224234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821799658844915805.post-33747220939584088232009-07-01T00:30:13.487+01:002009-07-01T00:30:13.487+01:00I'll get to posting about the math books when ...I'll get to posting about the math books when I can. They've made a big difference.<br /><br />Summer IS a great time. In part I get to relive the feeling this year, as I am not taking any classes this summer. It's great not to have a deadline every week (though I have a lot of projects that have been piling up).<br /><br />JoeClub 166https://www.blogger.com/profile/01816977079856902634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821799658844915805.post-47695299622837509792009-06-30T11:12:17.724+01:002009-06-30T11:12:17.724+01:00Lol!

Buddyboy sounds like he's making good progress...and what a wit! ;-)<br /><br />Hope your pace is slowing down some too and you have opportunities to write more. I miss your voice on the internet but know you are doing some good stuff in your own life. Interested to hear more about school. Or trips to the ice cream parlor...or even Buddyboy's joke repertoire.:-)Niksmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14715465327343655483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821799658844915805.post-45040830473154840502009-06-28T12:57:51.537+01:002009-06-28T12:57:51.537+01:00That sounds like a wonderful day...I would love to...That sounds like a wonderful day...I would love to know the math work books that you are using-as my son has the same problem with his multiplication.."Call Me Ishmael"-what a riot.:)kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07648854807234137885noreply@blogger.com
