Summertime and the weather is sunny...finally!
I hope many of you are checking out our blog over the summer as you are at home or traveling. I'd love to hear what you've been up to and what exciting books you are reading. Have you read the book I bought yet? I am reading "Al Capone Does My Shirts." I think many of you would like it. Happy summer!!!

ReplyDeleteHey My Friends!
ReplyDeleteChris- it sounds like your summer is off to a fabulous start. Thank you for the nice note on the last day of school, sorry you weren't there. My summer has yet to begin. Like the students during the year, I am studying hard right now with one more week of my science course. After Friday i am FREE! Talk to you all soon!
hi mrs. newell.. breadloaf ended and it was great i made a lot of friends and i keep in touch with them by facebook and aim. Right now the book im reading is "My Sister's Keeper" I've had a great summer so far, how about you?
ReplyDeleteHi Maria. I am so glad you enjoyed the writing at Breadloaf and I know you'll come back to show me your fabulous projects. Are you enjoying "My Sister's Keeper?" I read that a while ago and hope to see the movie this summer. It is a great story, but very sad. I've been reading quite a bit and am off on vacation so I know I will read more. Check out "Gathering Blue." Adriel let me borrow it and it was great. Very similar to "The Giver." Also, the book Jevan gave me,"Elijah of Buxton" was really good. I'm trying to get into "The Host" but it is so different from the Twilight series and I can't seem to fall in love with it. Maybe if I read more, I will like it. I can't wait to hear what you read next!! Let me know what you think of "My Sister's Keeper" when you are done. Oh yeah, if you get a chance, "Al Capone Does My Shirts" was great!! Enjoy and happy summer!!
ReplyDeleteLast night, well more like at dawn I finished "My Sister's Keeper". I was crying so hard my mom heard and came up to my room. She asked me if i had a nightmare and im like "no but i just finished the book and Anna died" so she started laughing at me and gave me tissues. I haven't gotten my reading list for summer yet but tomorrow my mom is getting paid and we might go buy them but I think we won't because i'm going to watch a soccer game in boston on sunday. I think it's Honduras vs. Spain. I'm really excited :)
ReplyDeletethats great maria! iv already finished 3 books. im working on the maximum ride books.im allmost at te last book! im geting a bird and his name is kiki. hes big so its ganna be hard finding a place for his cage. he like to sit on my shoulder. oh and he can talk! im so happy. but im allso sad because i had to put my dog up for adoption because my landlord said i couldnt keep him.
ReplyDeleteoh i forgot to mention that we got visits from Australia! isn't it awesome?
ReplyDeleteoh my god cris, i love birds. my grandma had 2 little birdies but one flew away. she still has the other one though the cat almost ate it once. it's sad you had to put your dog for adoption any dog is cute. i would take it but my parent's won't allow it :(
ReplyDeleteWell as you all know my love for birds does not exist...I hate them! But I am happy for you Chris. Glad you are both keeping up with your reading. What books are you choosing for the summer reading list? Check out the library...it's free!!

ReplyDeletehi guys i am here in guatemala it is realy hot here.i did not get to see the fireworks because that i came here. i bet it was realy fun!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW, Guatemala-how exciting! I am currently on vacation with mu husband and some friends. I read an entire book in one day yesterday, while at the beach of course. Today we saw the historic town of Charleston, SC and I had the chance to view some of the civil war's historic sites. What beautiful homes. I hope you're reading this summer! Enjoy!
ReplyDeletethat is nice being on vacation!!!! well last sunday i went to the pools!!! last year i went to "Rio Dulce" it was realy fun i think we are going this year to!!!!i here in guatemala, but in a place called "Morales" it is realy hot!!!it is a 2 hour diff from here to there!!!
ReplyDeleteMy dad has been to Guatemala before on business when we used to live in Honduras. I remember he would leave with his boss and he would come back with sooo much toys his bags would be over flowing. Of course his boss would let him because my dad used to work at this kind of bank where it was like a normal bank in a way but not really. It was more like a bank where different countries came to borrow money. For example if Costa Rica wanted to make a highway they would tell this bank we need 100,000,000 bucks and show the reason why and so my dad would analize the placce where the high would go and say either it was a good idea or not. He traveled a lot. Also I just finished reading "Miracles on Maple Hill". I didn't like it too much it was more like the books I read in 3rd grade. It was too easy for me.
ReplyDeleteiv never been to guatemala. i bet your having lots of fun! im going deep sea fishing today.im so exited!
