Book: The children and I are reading “Walt Disney” by Bill Scollon. Since we are planning a trip to Disney World, I thought it would be a fun read. It’s a great book for teaching grit and perseverance as well. Walt failed time and time again. He was rejected from the Kansas City newspapers because there …
Books I’ve read: Since the move, I really haven’t had the time to read many books. I did just finish “Wonder” by RJ Palacio. It has nearly 4,000 five star reviews and with good reason. The characters are great, the plot is moving and the message is one that every adult and child should hear. …

I know more about glucocorticoids than I ever thought possible… since I never even heard of them before. If you want to know …
Book Update: I finished “The Secrets of Happy Families” by Bruce Feiler while on vacation since it was a suggested book by Amazon. I think a lot of it could be applied to classrooms as well – especially elementary classrooms. The book is thoroughly researched with hundreds of books and authors referenced that are the …
Book Update: Our book club finished discussing “Skeletons in the Zahara” by Dean King, and as usual I came back enjoying the book even more. You have to get passed the boring introduction of the desert and Colonial America. Then, they get shipwrecked and the story becomes more interesting. The trials and tribulations Captain Riley …
