I've been reading Octopuppy to my children. It's about a boy named Edgar who wants a puppy but gets Jarvis, who is an octopus. Can an octopus act like a dog? Should he? This book has a great message about appreciating people for who they are and the importance of being yourself! The illustrations are fantastic! Our family highly recommends you check out Octopuppy! ]]> 2016-07-11 11:53:37 UTC https://padlet.com/farmingdaleschooldistrict/uvxvj4ua8tpa/wish/116199803 ksokolowski1 https://padlet.com/farmingdaleschooldistrict/uvxvj4ua8tpa/wish/116199907 One of my favorite things about summer is more time to read! I am reading a few different books, but one of them is called Kids Deserve It: Pushing Boundaries and Challenging Conventional Thinking by Todd Nesloney and Adam Welcome. I've been following their podcast (also called Kids Deserve It). Each week of the summer, the authors of Kids Deserve It are issuing a different challenge to educators, so we can grow and improve to help all the kids in our lives! ]]> 2016-07-11 11:57:32 UTC https://padlet.com/farmingdaleschooldistrict/uvxvj4ua8tpa/wish/116199907 https://padlet.com/farmingdaleschooldistrict/uvxvj4ua8tpa/wish/116220907 2016-07-11 18:49:35 UTC https://padlet.com/farmingdaleschooldistrict/uvxvj4ua8tpa/wish/116220907 https://padlet.com/farmingdaleschooldistrict/uvxvj4ua8tpa/wish/116230527 As part of my summer class, I am in a book club where we are reading Look Me in the Eye by John Elder Robison. It is a touching memoir about a boy growing up with his brother and family and the challenges they face. I am also enjoying reading and cooking from a new cookbook I got from a friend back for the 4th of July! It is Bobby Flay''s Grilling for Life cookbook... YUMMY!!]]> 2016-07-11 23:30:52 UTC https://padlet.com/farmingdaleschooldistrict/uvxvj4ua8tpa/wish/116230527 https://padlet.com/farmingdaleschooldistrict/uvxvj4ua8tpa/wish/116233832 The Art of Hearing Heartbeats
