How’s your Decatur summer reading Bingo going?? Here’s one of my favorite #caldecottmedal winners you could read for column 1 row 2! Adore the illustrations and the story It’s so incredible that his actual journal is online. Can you guess the book from the bricked cover? Swipe to confirm your answer. #mysterymonday #gatorsummerreading #gatorbookbingo #caldecottmedal
Really enjoyed #planetearthisblue by Nicole Panteleakos and it made me think of all the kids who tell me they really like #outofmymind by Sharon Draper. Have any other title ideas for those that love Out of My Mind? #likethisreadthis #gatorsummerreading #realisticdec #sharondraper #nicolepanteleakos
“If you grow up and have kids, you’re going to be reading this book to them so you might as well read it now.” -Ms Miller talking to any student that hasn’t read this book yet. I predict, it’s going to be a “classic”. Can you guess the title by the bricked picture? Swipe for the cover. #mysterymonday #newbery
So many books! Here are the books I have lined up to read next! #millertbrstack #realisticdec #fantasydec #informationaldec
Remember the friendships from elementary school? Navigating a best friend and new relationships is only one thing Mika has to deal with as she starts 5th grade (at the middle school). Loved the teacher character in this book who has kids keep a math journal which helps Mika not only work through math problems but life problems too. An accurate portrayal of the perspective a child has when a parent is sick-scared, alone, but trying to live a “normal” life, and full of what ifs. In the end this story is a hopeful portrayal of family and friends supporting those they care about. #gatorsummerreading #hitsclosetohome #realisticdec #solvingform #jenniferswendor eBook borrowed from@kingcountylibrary
Aahhh, middle school...I finally started reading Invisible Emmy this week as it’s ALWAYS checked out! Middle school as an anxious person is hard and the author so far portrays both sides of that story well. #gatorsummerreading #graphicnoveldec
Ever get really close to finishing a great book but it’s due back at the library? I love reading ebooks from @splbuzz but there’s no returning them late! Endearing story about Iris, a girl who fixes up old radios and is deaf. She learns about a whale that sings at a different frequency than other whales and so has been rejected because his song can’t be heard. ( author based idea on real “52-hertz whale”) . Iris creates a song hoping to let the whale know that he is not alone...but will the scientists play the song and will Iris ever meet the whale? IDK, I had to put it back on hold. #gatorsummerreading #realisticdec #couldbea#millerfavesbuthavetofinishitfirst
Awe... I’m going to miss this group of 5th graders too! Watch out world, they are going to do AMAZING things! #onceadecaturgatoralwaysagator #gatorsreadreadread #gatorsneverstopwondering
So many books to read this summer! 📚 Students have written down a bunch of books they want to read! They talked to classmates, heard about #millerfaves from the last few years, watched book trailers and heard about lots of great books when Erica visited from NE SPL @splbuzz. This week they should have brought home a goldenrod page with all their books to read next and a summer reading bingo page. When they run out of books visit our Book Suggestions pages at http://decatureslibrary.org Link in bio. #gatorsummereading
It’s time for Gators 🐊 to return their books! #gatorbookstacks #summerisalmosthere #allbooksduejune20
