weekend reads

Finished Dean Pitchford's "Captain Nobody". Story starts at the end and brings you back to where the final dilemma is happening. My only question is where are the parents and why is it okay to let your ten year old cook for the whole family ? otherwise the story is good. Captain Nobody is the younger brother of a town somebody, but that;s not the problem or is it? Anyhow the book is cute and cleverly written, reasonably realistic. I can recommend it. Do you have an older sibling who is really good at something? Do they get all the attention? Do you like him/her?

And I have read three more Junie Bs she is names after the month of June with a Beatrice in one she had to get glasses in first grade because like me she couldn't see the board from way at the back of the room. And then she learns about loosing things and getting to the Lost and Found Box. Graduation from Kindergarten. I like Junie's classmates they got behind her when she spills on her graduation gown. I have started "Skinny-Bones" to round out my Barbara Parks selections.

Thinking about using Smartboard senteo more for assessment. I have a list of questions for the first day third through fifth and wait until later to do second later. I will have to assign pin numbers to each student. Collect the results and reset the questions for the next class, and now I must download the software so I can work at home.
