Welcome back from a refreshing fall break! I hope you all had wonderful Thanksgivings and put some thought to what you are truly thankful for. Some things I thought of were: a healthy family, food in my belly and some time to read a good book!
Over the break, I read The Rising Star of Rusty Nail by Lesley Blume and it was fantastic! Set in Minnesota in the 1950's, this small town has a couple of girls who are talented at playing the piano, and they also happen to be arch-rivals complete with practical jokes and snide remarks. Providing lots of humor and a mysterious Russian "Commie", this inspiring story will keep you wanting to read more!
Come on down to the Media Center and turn in those books you finished over the Thanksgiving Break. Many exciting adventures await you in these stacks of books we have. See you then!
Reading Bowl Members: I have a meeting off campus tomorrow afternoon so I won't be able to be here for our Reading Bowl Practice. Keep reading and we'll take our Big Test next week. Please come talk to me about conflicts (basketball tryouts, etc.) and we'll work something out.
Mrs. Bridges
