Monday Matters: Week of April 23, 2007
The 13th Carnival of Children’s Literature is posted over at Jen Robinson’s. There is an awful lot of good reading.
Drama club had a rehearsal on Saturday. After the break, I asked them if they could go back in time, who would they like to be. The answers ranged from a knight during King Arthur, being on the Oregon Trail, a person who worked in a lighthouse, now considered on of the gohosts to seven years ago when my father still lived with us. The responses were fascinating. Me? I would have liked to travel to the time when my great-grandfather worked on a three masted schooner.
I met up with my book club friends last night. We feasted on Cuban cuisine in honor of our book Waiting for Snow in Havana by Carloe Eire. It is the first time in a while that all nine of us were in attendance. Great company, discussion, and food.
This week is week two of our state assessment tests. We will pick up from last week where we left off in our studies. I adjusted some classes because the look on their faces when as they came to the library said, “we need a break.”
Happy Reading.
