It's Monday! What Are You Reading? 8/26/13

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is an opportunity for everyone to share their book journeys: where we've been for the week and where we plan to go next. To learn more about It's Monday! What Are You Reading? with a kidlit focus, jump over to Jen Vincent's blog, Teach Mentor Texts, and Kellee Moye's blog, Unleashing Readers.

 

Egads! It's been 20 days since my last #IMWAYR post. Doesn't mean I haven't been reading. It's just been a busier than expected August.

Here's what I plan on reading next:

Marty McGuire is on the 2013-2014 OBOB list for grades 3-5. I'm on my own OBOB challenge reading my way through each 2013-2014 OBOB list.

I made it about half way through TLAP and then the Kindle died. I brought it back to life and so my goal is to finish.

Teachers Write! may be finished for the summer but I was inspired to look for Kristin Mentor Text as I plan for writing my dad inspired story for Maddie.

I'll continue with a couple of my writing circles that I grew to love over the summer. 

Tomorrow all teachers in my district return back to work. I look forward to hearing everyone's summer stories. And of course I'll want to know:

What are YOU reading?

Have a great week!
