    From one educator to another, I really like your book choices. I really must read "Who moved my cheese" soon, I've heard lots of people raving about it.

    The Hunger Games is a great trilogy and great for 8th graders. I also like The Giver trilogy. I just finished reading it for an adol. lit class I'm taking for my CAS. I think the Hunger Games definitely seems to be the cooler book to be reading now, more so than Harry Potter. Great story and characters.

    Hey, Turtle Teacher have you read The Hunger Games yet. The third in this great series is due out soon. Great books for 8th through early HS.

    I am on FB. I shall have to check it out. I just finished reading the Lost Symbol and just posted by review. It was ok. I would rather read the 2nd installment of Steig Larrson's trilogy. Now his first book was interesting reading.

    Will you go again next summer? It must have been fun having a teacher's only component.

    Michael,

    IU haven't been good about checking this site. I am in the middle of our sixth week of school already and looking toward parent teacher conferences next week. I have a great group this year and am excited about the way they are receptive to new things. They make great connections. I have used a couple of ideas already from your book Classroom. THey have loved them.

You can see that and a few more one-sentence animations (sentences pulled from stories in the issue) at our youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/ElectricLiterature

    Hope we continue to peak your interest. Thanks for being our friend!

    All the best,
