We have been reading the books of this great author, and it's time for our first blog assignment!
Choose your favorite book by Chris Van Allsburg, and then post a comment to this article.
Tell us which book is your favorite, and write at least three things that you like about the book. Then tell what you think is the theme or message of the book.

I can't believe that we're in the last few days of school. It's been wonderful reading and sharing ideas about books with you. You have all grown so much as readers, and I love to read your great thoughts. You can keep visiting our blog and wiki as long as you want. For our last blog assignment, please add a comment to this article. Leave some advice for next year's class. What should they expect in third grade? What did you learn? How did technology help you to be a better student? Thanks again for a fantastic year, and have a great summer! Blog on! Mrs. Harper

Be sure to include the following:
-Title and Author

Dear boys and girls,
We have been reading some exciting books in our book groups. Each one is about a character who has to face big challenges in order to survive.
It has been great to read all of your articles about your reading, and to see the interesting comments you are leaving for each other. You are becoming wonderful digital learners.

Dear boys and girls,
It's hard to believe that we've already reached Thanksgiving time, and soon we'll have the excitement of the holidays in December. You have been such great bloggers, and I love to read your conversations about your reading.
We have been studying the books of Chris Van Allsburg, one of my favorite authors. For your next blog assignment, please post a comment about one of his books that you have read. Tell us the title and what you thought was interesting about the book. Did you notice any similarities between it and any of his other books?
It should be interesting to read your ideas about the work of this great author.
Blog On!

Boys and girls, it's easy to see how much you love to read. This year, my goal is to help you become a better reader by learning how to think more about what you are reading. Our Literature Circles will help you with this.
Here's your first blog assignment:
We just read Zen Shorts in class and discussed what lesson about life the author was trying to teach us. Add a comment to this article that tells something that you thought was interesting in the book.
I'm looking forward to reading your thoughts!

It's hard to believe our year in third grade is over already! We have learned and grown so much.
For our last blog assignment, please add a comment to this article. Tell us what you thought was the most exciting thing you learned. How did technology (blog, wiki, SMARTBoard, portaportals) make learning better for you? What advice would you give to next year's class?
I can't wait to read your replies. Thanks for a wonderful year together.
Love,
Mrs. Harper
