Tips for Summer Reading

Geisel Award

Mrs. Champlin\’s first visit to the library  Mrs. Connie Champlin was a member of the Geisel Award Committee and picked our school to come and share the books with.  Here is a slideshow I made from Mrs. Champlin’s first visit.  I used PhotoPeach which is a new favorite tool for slideshows.  I have made them of a retirement party and my niece’s baby Nora.  Photopeach is free and very easy to use.

Title Talk

I have been reading alot of new books for the library and these are some of the titles that I really liked.  Most are brand new but some are new to me!  I am looking forward to reading them to my students.
