Its Monday! What are you reading? From Picture Books to YA is a weekly feature hosted by Jen and Kellee of Teach Mentor Texts and inspired by Its Monday! What are you reading by Sheila at Book Journeys.
Last week, I read Return of the Library Dragon, The Toadhouse Trilogy: Book 1, and The Total Tragedy of a Girl Named Hamlet. I also started How to Train Your Dragon. We also had our Virginia Reader's Choice book selection committee meeting (each state has one), and even though I can't share the titles until April, you Nerdy Book Clubbers will like what we chose.
Last week's posts:
October 22: It's Monday! post
October 23: Review: Return of the Library Dragon
October 24: Review: Ten by Gretchen McNeil
October 25: Thursday #Thirstday; About the Illustrator: Michael P. White; It's about time for a #schooljoy!
October 26: Using Pinterest in School {Math Board}
This coming week:
I hope to finish How to Train Your Dragon. I'll probably start Bloodlines by Richelle Meade. I also get to hear Jane Hill speak on Thursday. She is the coauthor of Classroom Instruction That Works for English Language Learners (with Kathleen M. Flynn). I hope to have some information to share (maybe next week? I have to wrap my head around it first, then type it all up for you)
Of course, this may all change if the Frankenstorm hits! And lets be honest, I kind of hope it does---though, in the form of 2 feet of snow would be more desirable than 12 inches of rain.

The Total Tragedy of a Girl Named Hamlet...any book with a title like this deserves immediate reading!
ReplyDeleteThat's what I thought, too, when I bought it! I thoroughly enjoyed it :)
