Staying on track with Teachers Pay Teachers can be tricky. I end up getting up every other minute if I'm not listening or watching something at the same time. Lately, I've rediscovered the library Overdrive system. You can use your library card number to download eBooks or audio books.
I read The Lightning Thief a few days ago and I'm currently working through The Sword of Summer. The Lightning Thief is my reread for the reading challenge.
The book is pretty good and is a fast read. What I've noticed with this book and the other books by Rick Riordan is that the characters all read very similarly (at least to me). When I've used this in guided reading groups before, it is a pretty big hit. I would definitely recommend this book to middle/upper elementary school students. If you're a teacher, there is a free teacher's guide online that can be used to supplement the book. It comes in handy if you are swamped and can't spend as much time as you'd like coming up with activities and comprehension questions.
1000 Books Before Kindergarten
We are still going strong on the 1,000 book challenge. Baby A is just over 200 books.
We have several of these smaller board books for Baby A.
They are smaller than most board books, so they are pretty easy to pack and store. These are really easy for Baby A to handle so that she can interact with them pretty easily. The sets I've seen are pretty reasonably priced as well!
