ancora imparo

I’ve got about three books going right now. Stephen King’s On Writing, Tess Gerritsen’s Bloodstream, and Jerry Spinelli’s Loser. I brought home a stack from work today for summer reading, including some professional stuff and some YA stuff and, as Barb called it today, “big girl books” that I claimed from a “Take what you want” box in the faculty lunch room a few months ago.

I’m also reading blogs like a mad-woman. My blogroll keeps growing. Eventually, I’m going to have to get rid of some of them, but for now, I’m enjoying them.

I’ve got it in my head that I’d like to have the kids blog about what they’re reading in the summer reading program in July. I don’t know if or how it will work, but I’m looking forward to the prospect. I need to talk about it with Chad a little tomorrow and see if he thinks there’s a reason we can’t do it. If he’s game, I think it will be great, as it will incorporate both reading and writing and should motivate other kids to read the books recommended by their peers. My only problem will be if the filters block a blog site. I’ll have to check on that too, I suppose.
