Off the bookshelf…catching up (October 2011)!

Yikes…it’s been awhile since I have been able to post here for numerous reasons, mostly due to access/technology/bandwidth challenges, I’ll just take advantage of this window of opportunity to pick up where we left off and see if we can continue to move ahead!

We have LOTS of great new books in the library, and I am busy reading them as fast as I can, as are many students and teachers! Here are some of the latest I have been enjoying (and recommend):
