We are ready to rock and roll into this new year. I will be starting a new series called "First Chapter Friday". Every other Friday a new "first chapter" of an awesome book will be read to your students in hopes that it sparks a motivation for them to pick up a book to read from cover to cover. Reading does so much more than just comprehension. It increases vocabulary, develops an understanding of style and it is an escape for the reader. I will try really hard to find PDF files of the books to link to my files page. Thanks for your support! 1.
