Finshed reading- Punished

I forgot to publish my last post so it looks like I just wrote it today...be assured, I wrote it last week.  Last night, Matt joined Emma and Alex ( and Evan, Alex's brother) to discuss the book.  They each created a "sandwich" bookreport to summarize the book.  We all agreed Punished was a great book and we would highly recommend it to anyone!  I began to read aloud the next book, Soupy Saturaday's with the Pain and The Great One.  So far, I did not hear many complaints, which means they may enjoy this book too.  The kids can follow along or read on their own.  Each week we will continue to meet to read, discuss and do some "fun" stuff.  I look forward to see all of you next Wednesday.

Bare Bones summer time..

Tonight only Alex and Emma showed up for our discussion.  The kids talked about the Oxymorons they found in chapter five and six.  We decided, as mentioned at our last meeting we would all finish reading the book by July 7th.  I would like to read aloud the next book at each meeting.  I think we will start with Judy Blume's book.  Hope to see more of you next week...Lisa
