In Social Studies we have started studying WWII. Fifth grade boys long for this day and the girls just look mildly interested. However, today as I was doing lesson plans I was so excited I wanted to scream. Next week I will introduce them to old friends...Ellen and AnnaMarie. Yes, we are going to start Number the Stars. I LOVE that book. And as a teacher I can't wait to introduce a whole new group of students to some of the most memorable characters ever! This is the stuff that makes teaching worth it for me!
Happy Friday all! I hope you find renewed excitement this weekend!

I know just what you mean! My 11th graders wanted to have a book club and for the first couple of months they were on a John Green kick. I delighted in spending time with Alaska (Looking for Alaska) and Margo (Papertowns). It was just so much fun to revisit their adventures with a different group of kids.
