#IMWAYR, September 5, 2016


Each week I join Jen from Teach Mentor Texts and Kellee and Ricki from Unleashing Readers to share all of the reading I've done over the week from picture books to young adult novels. #IMWAYR

On Thursday I welcomed my new students to my classroom. I have 24 third graders excited to get started sharing their books.  



Here are some highlights from their first visit to our school library. I asked them to share their thoughts on why they picked the book.





Each week I will chose some more to share. My class is also participating in #Classroombookaday so make sure to check that out on Twitter. 

Here's what I read this week:


Picture Books

You can't read this book aloud without finding your little red chicken voice. I loved the relationship between the little chicken and his dad, the connection to fairy tales, and the way the little chicken summed up the most important parts of each story in his very unique way.
