Although I teach all the subject areas, my favorite subjects are reading and writing. My class and I have a lot of fun reading and writing together. This year as read aloud books we read Avi's Beyond the Western Sea: Book One and Book Two. We loved the adventures of Maura, Patrick, Laurence, and Mr. Drabble.
For "reading books", we have read Caddie Woodlawn, The Black Pearl, and Hatchet. All of these books are great! Hatchet is a favorite of almost everyone. If you haven't read it yet I would highly recommend it or any of the other books by Gary Paulson!
I hope that you have learned a little something from this web site and that one day you might try your hand at publishing something on-line.
