THING 15 Library Thing

This was a fun activity. I found myself getting caught up in the search for books I’ve read and authors I enjoy. This type of activity makes me realize how much time I DON’T take to read. But it’s motivating. I did the stretch task and felt like the “add book” process took longer than I had hoped. I’ve read series of books by authors and would like to be able to add them all at once. This didn’t seem to be an option. As an English and reading teacher, I can see how this can be utilized in the classroom, particularly in the Independent Reading segment of middle school reading. Overall I enjoyed it, the groups, and the contests.

    Girl……….this blog is wonderful. Haven’t visited in awhile and you are on the move! I need help. I can’t seem to get my Voki to look right on the page so I haven’t downloaded it yet. And you are so far ahead! What kind of vitamins are you taking?
    Please bring some to room 103/WA.

    I liked this activity too. I found myself wishing I could recall the fantastic details and emotion and eloquently enter them into the reviews for my library catalogue. It too made me realize how much more I would like to read. I think we’re in the race for our names in the hat;)
