Reading Rewards

State testing made this week a little out of the ordinary so I don't have pictures to post for our slide show this week.  I do, however, still have something exciting to post!  This week, Jackie was the first student to earn a book for reading rewards.  Other students have chosen to trade in their reading reward stickers for candy or pencils, but Jackie has been saving and saving and saving!  I brought in three paperback books I would recommend to her and she chose: 
The Lemonade War
By Jacqueline Davies.

This book is about a brother and sister who end up each running his and her own lemonade stand and competing with each other to make the most money.  Each chapter alternates being told from his perspective and then her perspective.  

Here's Jackie with her book:
 And here she is writing her name into her very own book.  She was reading it this week after she finished her ISAT testing and was telling me about why Steve and his sister are trying to outdo each other with their lemonade stands!
Who's gonna be the next kiddo to earn a book!?!!?  It could be you!
