100th Day of School!

Wow! On Friday our students were celebrating the 100th day of school...where did the time go?? Extend the celebration by visiting this list of the Top 100 Books for Children at childrensbooksguide.com! Of course there are lots of book lists out there, but I like the mix of classic and modern titles you'll find here. We just read Tikki Tikki Tembo in second grade this week as we began our exploration of folktales. As always, the students loved it!

Don't forget that you can
request any of these titles at your local public library; just go to the Ocean State Libraries search page. If your local branch doesn't own the book you want, you can log in with your library card number to request it. If any library in the state owns a copy, it will be sent to your home library -- for free!
