Picture Day!

Tomorrow is picture day.  Our scheduled time is for 10:10am tomorrow morning.  I can't wait to see all of the kids smiling faces.

For the next week or two we will be studying character traits in reading.  What I want your children to understand is that we can learn about people through reading books.  

Donalyn Miller a teacher, and author writes that, "Through characters- the saints and sinner, real or imagined- reading shows you how to be a better human being."  

Attached is a list of books that have very well developed characters.  By no means are these the only books with great characters, but it is a good list to get you and your family started when going to the library or bookstore.

Happy Reading!
