Stolen Children

Wow! I cannot put this book down! Now I understand why students all across New York State chose this book as the Charlotte Award winner. It is full of action and suspense. Amy, the babysitter, was brave and smart because she designed clues to her and Kendra's location in the videos! She had to be very clever to do it without getting caught. As you read this story Amy becomes very easy to identify with as a main character. I found myself not only rooting for her and Kendra's safe return to their families, but also hoping that she would open up to her mother abut the events prior to her father's death. This book is an enjoyable read for children and adults!






The author Peg Kehret has another new book out....

Discovery Education Links

Today Mr. Place, Mr. Hanson, Mrs. Tedesco and I are at the Baseball Hall of Fame. We are at a conference about digital storytelling. Although we are immersed in Discovery Education products- our speaker is dynamic and I look forward to sharing many of these web 2.0 links and digital ideas with you.

This past week students and faculty in our building learned how to use our audience polling system. This new tool provides instant feedback for teachers and students. Ask your child about the "clickers" that we used to respond to our Tumblebook story!


Below is a link to a free online polling system that can be used with your cell phone. Try it out!
